Whirlpool Top-Loading Washer WTW4850BW Manuel Du Propriétaire

WASH

You will hear the motor and agitator moving the load.

During the first stage of the sensing/wash cycle, water

will partially fill the washer and then 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 combined with HE detergent at this

stage allows for concentrated cleaning. Concentrated

cleaning delivers the detergent directly to the soils. 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 move quicker during this stage

of the wash cycle. The motor sounds may change at

different stages in the wash cycle.

RINSE

You will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the

washer rinses and moves the load. For cycles that use

a spray rinse you will hear water enter the washer as

the tub spins, allowing the rinse water to penetrate the

clothes. For cycles that use the extra rinse option, you

will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the washer

rinses and moves the load. Fabric softener will be added

if the Fabric Softener Added-Yes option was selected.

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, this light will come on.

Remove the load promptly for best results.

LID LOCKED

To allow for proper load sensing and

spinning, the lid will lock and the Lid

Locked light will turn on. This light

indicates that the lid is locked and

cannot be opened.

If you need to open the lid, press

START/Pause/Unlock. 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/Unlock

again to resume the cycle. Avoid

opening the lid during sensing. The

sensing process will start over when the

washer is restarted.
