Cleaning With Less Water; Automatic Load Size Sensing; Choosing The Right Detergent; Normal Sounds You Can Expect - Whirlpool Cabrio WTW8200YW0 Use And Care Manual

WHAT'S NEW UNDER THE LID?
Cleaaiag with Less Automatic Load Size Sensing
Traditional agitator-style
washer
Low-water washer
The most striking difference in your new washer is the low-water
washplate wash system. The washer automatically adjusts the
water level to the load size--no water level selector is needed.
Once you start the cycle, the lid will lock, and the washer will
begin the sensing process to determine the correct water level
for the load.
You will hear the motor turn the basket in short pulses to
thoroughly wet the load. This low-water wash method uses
less water and energy compared to a traditional agitator-style
washer.
Choosiag the Right Detergent
Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package will be
marked "HE" or "High Efficiency." Low-water washing creates
excessive sudsing with a regular non-HE detergent. Using
regular detergent will likely result in longer cycle times and
reduced rinsing performance. It may also result in component
failures and noticeable mold or mildew. HE detergents are made
to produce the right amount of suds for the best performance.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions to determine the amount
of detergent to use.
Use only High Efficiency (HE) detergent.
Load garments in loose heaps evenly around the washplate.
Do not load garments directly over the center of the washplate;
when loaded, the center of the washplate should be visible.
Concentrated Cleaniag
Low-water cleaning means concentrated cleaning. Rather
than diluting detergent as done in an agitator-style washer,
this washer delivers the detergent directly to the soils.
NormM Sounds You Can Expect
At different stages of the wash cycle, you may hear sounds and
noises that are different from those of your previous washer.
For example, you may hear a clicking and hum at the beginning
of the cycle, as the lid lock goes through a self-test. There
will be different kinds of humming and whirring sounds as the
washplate moves the load. And sometimes, you may hear
nothing at all, as the washer determines the correct water level
for your load or allows time for clothes to soak.
As the washer dampens and moves the load, the level of the
garments will settle in the basket. This is normal, and does not
indicate that more garments should be added.
IMPORTANT: You will not see a washer basket full of water
as with your past agitator-style washer. It is normal for some of
the load to be above the water line.
