LOADING YOUR WASHER
• You can fill the tub with dry, unfolded clothes; but DO NOT OVERLOAD the tub.
• Overloading may reduce washing efficiency, cause excess wear, and possibly cause creasing or
wrinkling of the load.
• Wash delicate items such as bras, hosiery, and other lingerie in the Delicates cycle with similar
lightweight items.
• When washing big bulky items or a few smaller items that don't fill the tub completely – a rug, a pillow,
stuffed toys, or one or two sweaters, for example – add a few towels to improve tumbling and spin
performance.
During the spin cycle, the washer may add additional water to redistribute the excessive imbalance
inside the drum.
• When washing heavily soiled loads, do not overload your Washer in order to assure good cleaning
results.
•
To add a forgotten item:
1. Press the Start/Pause Button.
2. Wait for the Door Lock light to go out (5 seconds)
3. Add the item, close the door, and press the Start/Pause Button.
After a 10-second pause, the cycle will resume.
To ensure thorough cleaning, add items within five minutes of starting the wash cycle.
Try washing bedding, towels, undergarments, and other articles that usually have close body
contact using the SilverCare™ Option, which sanitizes using cold water.

GETTING STARTED

1. Load your Washer.
2. Close the door.
Push the laundry into the drum completely to prevent the laundry from being caught in the door or
from falling out of the drum.
CAUTION
3. Add detergent and additives to the dispenser (see pages 20~21).
4. Select the appropriate cycle and options for the load (see pages 14~16).
5. Press the Start/Pause Button.
6. The Wash Indicator light will illuminate.
7. The estimated cycle time will appear in the display.
The time may fluctuate to better indicate the time remaining in the cycle.
8. Before your washer starts to fill, it will make a series of clicking noises to check the door lock and do a
quick drain.
•
When the cycle is complete, the Door Lock light will go out and "End" will appear in the display.
• DO NOT attempt to open the door until the Door Lock light is off. To add a forgotten item, see
"Loading your Washer" section. (page 13)
• When your Washer is restarted after a pause, expect a delay of up to 15 seconds before the cycle
continues.
• Pressing Power button cancels the cycle and stops your washer.
•
The Pre Wash, Wash, Rinse and Spin indicator lights will illuminate during those portions of the
cycle.
