To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to
persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before
operating this appliance.
1. Prepare wash load by sorting into similar fabric types.
Separate light and dark items and lint givers from lint receivers. Be
certain articles are colour-fast. Prevent possible damage to fabrics
by emptying pockets, closing zippers, fastening hooks and
mending torn items. Pretreat heavily soiled or stained items.
2. Estimate the size of the wash load.
3. Add measured detergent to empty tub. Accurately measure
detergent before adding it to the washer. For best results, follow
package directions. If the water is hard or the load is heavily soiled
or larger than usual, more detergent may be needed. If the water
is soft or the load is lightly soiled or smaller than usual, less
detergent may be added.
If excess sudsing occurs when using the suggested amount of
detergent, change to a low-sudsing detergent. Excess suds are not
necessary to get clothes clean and can hamper wash action.
4. Add liquid bleach, if desired, to the wash tub as directed in
the section "Bleach Dispenser."
5. Load clothes loosely. Dry load level should be no higher than the
top of agitator vanes. DO NOT overload washer. Do not load
articles on top of the agitator or wind them around it. For best
results, mix large items with small ones. When washing a single
heavy item, such as a shag rug or bedspread, add one or two
smaller articles to balance the load. Large items should be no more
than half the total load.
6. Set the controls. Choose the control settings according to the
type of load and the amount of soil. Refer to the Washer Cycle
Selection Guide for suggested cycles, wash times and water
temperatures.
• Wash Temperature Control - Turn the control to select the
desired wash water temperature. The rinse water temperature
is cold.
• Water Level Control - For best economy and washing results,
select the appropriate Water Level setting for the estimated load
size.
7. Push in timer knob and turn clockwise to the desired wash
cycle and wash time. For best washing results, follow the fabric
care labels in clothes for washing instructions. See "Washer Cycle
Selection" for wash cycle descriptions.
