Load Size (on some models)
n Add detergent to the bottom of the basket and fabric softener to the dispenser prior to loading clothes.
n Loosely load items in the washer basket. Overloading may negatively impact wash performance. Adjust the
load size accordingly.
n Make the load selection:
For AUTOMATIC LOAD SENSING equipped models
– For convenience, best performance and optimal efficiency, select AUTOMATIC LOAD SENSING. This selection
automatically provides the correct amount of water suited to the size and type of load placed in the unit.
– If you prefer to manually select the water level, select SMALL through SUPER. While AUTOMATIC LOAD SENSING is best
for most loads and general washing, you may want to manually select the load size for specialty items such as bulky,
lightweight comforters or pillows, where you want to ensure a larger water level is applied. Manual load size selections
should be made for wet items placed in the washer, such as soaked towels or garments.
– The washer will not fill with water when automatic load sensing is selected if the lid is opened.
When the lid is closed the machine is able to begin filling with water in order to sense the load size.
NOTE: This is a high-efficiency washing machine. This system requires less water while providing effective cleaning action.
You may notice that the water level is lower than on your previous washer. This is normal.
