H
ow to use washer
At the beginning of the cycle, the
washer tumbles the load and
detects the weight of the clothes.
The display will indicate the approximate load size
in the LOAD SIZE display. This allows you to adjust
the amount of detergent and other additives for best
results and improved efficiency.
The LOAD SIZE display:
Example 1: If the washer has detected a small
load size, the display may only show one lighted
bar. Only a small amount of detergent should be
used, because the amount of clothing and the
quantity of water that will be used is small.
Recommended
amount for this
load
Example 2: If the washer has detected a large
load size, the display may show all four bars
lighted. More detergent should be used, because
the amount of clothing and the quantity of water
that will be used is greater.
Recommended
amount for this
load
NOTE: Because the washer uses a very small
amount of water, care should be taken when
deciding how much detergent to use. Normal
loads only need about half the detergent
manufacturer's recommended amount. This
saves detergent by using it in a more
concentrated manner. However, for heavily soiled
loads, additional detergent should be added.

To use Automatic Load Size Sensing:
❶ Load the washer, select the desired cycle and
options, and then start the cycle by pressing
the START/PAUSE button.
❷ The washer will tumble for a short time to
detect the size of the load. After the washer
detects the load size, the washer will show the
detected size in the LOAD SIZE display for 10
seconds before it continues with the cycle.
❸ During the 10 second delay in step three,
press the START/PAUSE button to pause the
cycle.
❹ Fill the detergent and additive compartments
of the detergent drawer with detergent/
additive amounts based on the load size the
machine has detected. Following these
guidelines can save detergent.
❺ Press the START/PAUSE button again to
resume the cycle.
To check the load size during the wash portion of
the cycle, press and hold the RINSE+SPIN
button for 3 seconds. The LOAD SIZE display
will be activated for 10 seconds.
NOTE: The load detection routine only works
with dry clothes. Since the detection system is
detecting the WEIGHT of the load, it will be
affected by unusually heavy articles in the load.
For example, a garment that is already wet that
is loaded with other items will cause the LOAD
SIZE reading to be inaccurate.
If you do not desire to take advantage of the load
size detection feature, simply load the desired
amount of detergent and additives in the
dispenser and start the washer in the usual
manner.
