Whirlpool WTW5005KW Guide De Démarrage Rapide

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Fire Hazard
Never place items in the washer that are dampened
with gasoline or other flammable fluids.
No washer can completely remove oil.
Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of
oil on it (including cooking oils).
Doing so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to
persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS, located in
your appliance's Owner's Manual, before operating this appliance.
NOTES:
■ Not all features and cycles are on all models, and control panel
appearance may vary.
■ If your model has a touch interface, the control panel features
a sensitive surface that responds to a light touch of your finger.
To ensure your selections are registered, touch the control panel
with your fingertip, not your fingernail. When selecting a setting
or option, simply touch its name.
■ If your model has physical buttons, make sure to press the
button firmly.
■ At cycle completion, your setting and option choices will be
remembered for the next cycle. However, if power to the washer
is lost, the settings and options will go back to the factory
defaults.
Button Descriptions
SOIL LEVEL
Select the setting most suitable for your load. For heavily soiled and
sturdy fabrics, select Heavy Soil Level for more wash time. For lightly
soiled and delicate fabrics, select Light Soil Level for less wash time.
A lighter soil-level setting will help reduce tangling and wrinkling.
WASH TEMP
Wash Temp senses and maintains uniform water temperatures by
regulating incoming hot and cold water.
Select a wash temperature based on the type of fabric and soils
being washed. For best results, follow the garment label instructions
using the warmest wash water safe for your fabric.
NOTES:
■ On some models and cycles, warm and hot water may be cooler
than your previous washer.
■ Even in a cold- or cool-water wash, some warm water may be
added to the washer to maintain a minimum temperature. All
rinses are cold.

Adding Laundry Products
IMPORTANT: Using non-HE detergent will likely result in longer cycle times and reduced rinsing performance. It may also result in component malfunction and, over time, buildup of mold or mildew. HE detergents should be low-
sudsing and quick-dispersing to produce the right amount of suds for the best performance.
Adding liquid fabric softener to dispenser:
Pour a measured amount of liquid fabric softener into dispenser; always follow manufacturer's directions for correct amount of fabric softener based on your load size. Dilute liquid fabric softener by filling the dispenser with warm
water until liquid reaches the underside of the rim. See Max Fill line arrows.
Adding liquid fabric softener manually to wash load:
During the final rinse, wait until the washer has completed filling and press the START/PAUSE button to pause the washer. Lift the lid and add the measured, recommended amount of liquid fabric softener. Do not use more than
the recommended amount. Close the lid and press the START/PAUSE button again to start the washer. Always follow manufacturer's directions for correct amount of fabric softener based on your load size.

washer will fill to a level that ensures the load engages the agitator. From
this point, the electronic control will sense the load and determine if
additional water is needed. Set the Water Level knob to Deep Fill setting
and the washer will fill to the maximum water level.
NOTES: Expect longer cycles times due to extended fill times when
using the Deep Fill option.
Deep Fill is not available in the Normal cycle mode. Selecting the Normal
cycle with the Deep Fill setting will result in auto sensing of the water
level.
START/PAUSE BUTTON
Press to start the selected cycle; press again to pause the cycle and
unlock the lid.
NOTE: If the washer is spinning, it may take several minutes to unlock
the lid.
Sensing
When the Start/Pause button is pressed, the washer will fill to an initial
water level and begin sensing to determine the load size. The washer
will then continue filling to the appropriate water level based on load size
and proceed to Wash. If the lid is opened or the Start/Pause button is
pressed, the cycle will pause. Closing the lid and/or pressing the Start/
Pause button will resume the cycle. If the cycle remains paused with the
lid open for 10 minutes, the washer will pump out the water.
Wash
During the first stage of the sensing/wash cycle, water will partially fill
the washer and begin to move the load. It is normal to have the sensing
light on during this stage. You will hear the agitator rotate followed by
a several second pause. This process will repeat for several minutes,
allowing the entire load to become saturated. The lower water level
Adding HE detergent to basket:
Add a measured amount of HE detergent or single-dose laundry packets into the basket. If using Oxi-type boosters, color-safe bleach, or fabric softener crystals, add to the bottom
of the washer basket before adding clothes.
NOTE: Follow the manufacturer's instructions to determine the amount of laundry products to use.
Adding liquid chlorine bleach:
Do not overfill, dilute, or use more than 1 cup (236 mL). Do not use color-safe bleach or Oxi products in the same cycle with liquid chlorine bleach.
IMPORTANT: The RINSE OPTIONS knob must be set to either 1 Rinse with softener or 2 Rinses with softener when using fabric softener. This ensures that fabric
softener is added at the correct time in the rinse phase and is evenly distributed.

combined with HE detergent at this stage allows for concentrated
cleaning. It is normal for the load to be above the water line during this
stage. At the beginning of the second stage, the washer will add water to
the correct level based on the load size. You will hear the agitator increase
speed during this stage of the wash cycle. The motor sounds may change
at different stages in the wash cycle.
PROGRESS
The Progress lights show the progress of a cycle. At each stage of the
process, you may notice sounds or pauses that are different from your
previous washers.
Rinse
Certain cycles use a spray rinse, which adds water to the tub while the
basket spins. You may hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the
washer rinses and moves the load. You may hear the motor turning on
briefly (short hum) to move the basket while filling.
Spin
The washer spins the load at increasing speeds for proper water removal,
based on the selected cycle and spin speed.
Done
Once the cycle is complete, the lid will unlock and this light will come on.
For best results, promptly remove the load.
Locked
The Lock feature allows for higher spin speeds. When lit, the lid is locked
and cannot be opened without pausing the cycle. When the light is off, the
lid can be opened. To open the lid after it has been locked, press START/
PAUSE. The lid will unlock once the washer movement has stopped. This
may take several minutes if the load was spinning at high speed. Press
START/PAUSE while the lid is closed to resume the cycle.
Description:
Use this cycle for normally soiled cottons and
mixed-fabric loads. A high spin speed is the
default for this cycle.
