For the best washing results, and to reduce the possibility

of damage to clothing, care should be taken to sort the

clothing into loads that are made up of similar items.

Mixing different fabric types and/or soil levels can result

in poor wash performance, color transfer or discoloration,

fabric damage or linting. Fabrics should be sorted into

groups as described below.

For proper wash performance, always measure the

detergent using the measurements provided by the

detergent manufacturer.

The normal amount of HE detergent needed, for

average loads, is less than ½ of the recommended

maximum. Use less detergent for soft water, light soil

or smaller loads. Never use more than the maximum

amount recommended by the detergent

manufacturer.

NOTE: It is normal for a small amount of water to

remain in the bleach and softener compartments at the

end of the cycle.

IMPORTANT: Do not place or store laundry products,

such as detergent, bleach, or liquid fabric softener, on

top of your washer or dryer. Wipe up any spills immedi-

NOTE: The time shown is only an estimate. This time

is based on normal operating

conditions. Several

external factors (load size, room temperature,

incoming water temperature, etc.) can affect the

actual time.

CYCLE STATUS INDICATOR

These LEDs will illuminate when a cycle is selected

to indicate which stages will run. When a cycle is

running, the LED will blink for the active stage. Once

a stage is complete, the LED will turn off. If a cycle

is paused, the active LED will stop blinking.

WASH TEMP

WASH TEMP selects the wash and rinse temperature

combination for the selected cycle. Press the WASH

TEMP button until the indicator light for the desired

setting is lit.

SPIN SPEED

Higher spin speeds extract more water from clothes,

reducing drying time and saving energy.

Press the SPIN SPEED button until the desired speed

is selected. Some fabrics, such as delicates, require

a slower spin speed. To protect your clothing, not all

spin speeds are available for all cycles.
