Starting Your Washer
1.
Measure detergent and pour it into the washer. If desired, add 
powdered or liquid color safe bleach. Add extra detergent for 
the Extra Wash cycle.
Drop a sorted load of clothes loosely into your washer. 
Load evenly to maintain washer balance. Mix large and 
small items.
Items should move easily through the wash water. 
Overloading can cause poor cleaning.
To reduce wrinkling of permanent press clothes and some 
synthetic knits, use a large load size to provide more 
space (see step 5).
2.
(OPTIONAL STEP) Pour measured liquid chlorine bleach into 
the liquid chlorine bleach dispenser. Bleach will be diluted 
automatically during the wash part of the cycle.
Never use more than 1 cup (250 mL) for a full load. Use 
less with a smaller load size.
Follow the manufacturer’s directions for safe use.
To avoid spilling, use a cup with a pouring spout. Do not 
let bleach splash, drip, or run down into the washer 
basket.
Use only liquid chlorine bleach in this dispenser.
3.
(OPTIONAL STEP) Pour measured liquid fabric softener into 
the liquid fabric softener dispenser. Softener is added 
automatically during the rinse portion of the cycle.
Dilute liquid fabric softener by filling the dispenser with warm 
water until liquid reaches the crossbar in the opening.
Do not spill or drip any fabric softener on the clothes.
Use only liquid fabric softener in this dispenser.
4.
Close the washer lid.
5.
Turn the LOAD SIZE selector to the correct setting for your 
wash load and the type of fabric being washed.
Choose a load size that allows the load to move freely for 
best fabric care. See “Loading.”
To change the load size selection after the washer has 
started filling, turn the selector to the desired setting. On 
models with a Reset option, first move the selector to 
RESET, then to the new load size.
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
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in
death, fire, or electrical shock.
Do not use an extension cord.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not remove ground prong.
