WASHER USE
NOTE: Your washer model may vary from the model shown.
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: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to
persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before
operating this appliance.
The following is a guide to starting your washer. Periodic
references to other sections of this manual provide more detailed
information.
1. Place a load of sorted clothes into the washer. See "Laundry
Tips."
• Load evenly to maintain washer balance. Mix large and
small items.
• Load only to the top of the stainless steel basket as
shown. Overloading can cause poor cleaning. Items
should move easily through the wash water.
2.
Pour measured powdered or liquid detergent into the
detergent dispenser. Do not put detergent directly into the
wash tub or onto clothes in the washer.
3. Add color-safe bleach (powdered or liquid) to this dispenser,
if needed. Be sure to match powdered color-safe bleach with
powdered detergent or match liquid color-safe bleach with
liquid detergent.
4. Pour measured liquid chlorine bleach into the liquid chlorine
bleach dispenser, if needed. Bleach is automatically
dispensed at the proper time during the wash cycle.
Do not overfill. Do not dilute. Do not use more than 1 cup
(250 mL) for a full load. Use less with a smaller load size.
Follow the garment and the chlorine bleach
manufacturer's directions for proper use.
To avoid spilling, use a cup with a pouring spout. Do not
let bleach splash, drip, or run down into the washer basket.
At the end of the cycle, a small amount of water may be
left in the dispenser. This is normal.
NOTE: Use only liquid chlorine bleach in this dispenser.
