(Optional Step) Add liquid fabric softener.
NOTE: Do not spill or drip any fabric softener onto the
clothes. Undiluted fabric softener can stain fabrics. Always
dilute fabric softener with warm water. Too much fabric
softener can make some items (diapers and towels)
nonabsorbent.
If this happens, do not use it on every load, or
use less of it in each load.

•
Use only liquid fabric softener in this dispenser. Pour
measured liquid fabric softener into the dispenser.
Softener is added automatically
during the rinse portion
of the cycle. Dilute liquid fabric softener by filling the
dispenser with warm water until liquid reaches the lowest
edge in the dispenser opening.

NOTES:
•
Your washer may be equipped with Automatic
Temperature Control (ATC). ATC electronically senses and
maintains the temperature
in the washtub by alternating
between incoming hot and cold water.
•
In wash water temperatures
colder than 60°F (15.6°C),
detergents do not dissolve well. Soils can be difficult to
remove. Some fabrics can retain wear wrinkles and have
increased pilling (the formation of small lint-like balls on
the surface of garments).
(Optional Step) OPTIONS selector (on some models). For an
additional rinse and spin at the end of a wash cycle, set the
Options selector to 2nd Rinse. On some models, the 2nd
Rinse feature is part of the cycle.
(Optional Step) SPEEDS selector (on some models). Each
speed setting is designed for different types of fabric and soil
levels.
Push in the Cycle Control knob and turn it clockwise to the

To restart the washer, close the lid (if open) and pull out
the Cycle Control knob.
WASHER CARE
Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to wipe up any spills such as
detergent or bleach from the outside of your washer.
Clean your washer interior by mixing 1 cup (250 mL) of chlorine
bleach and 2 cups (500 mL) of detergent. Pour this mixture into
your washer and run it through a complete cycle using hot water.
Repeat this process if necessary.
Remove any hard water deposits using only cleaners labeled as
washer safe.
Cleaning the liquid fabric softener dispenser (on some
models):
Style 1: To remove dispenser, grasp the top of the dispenser with
both hands. Squeeze and push upward with both thumbs to
