First Wash Cycle Without Laundry
Before washing clothes for the first time, choose the Normal/
Casual cycle and run it without clothes. Use _/2 the normal
recommended amount of powdered or liquid High Efficiency (HE)
detergent. This initial cycle serves to ensure the interior is clean
before washing clothes.
1. To load the washer
Open the washer door by pulling on the handle. Sort laundry
according to color and type of fabric. Place a load of sorted
clothes in the washer. Do not overload washer. Overloading
can cause poor cleaning.
• The washer can be fully loaded, but not tightly packed.
Washer door should close easily.
• Mix large and small items. Avoid washing a single item.
Load evenly.
2,
3,
Wash small items such as infant socks in mesh garment
bags. It is recommended that more than one garment bag
be used and that each garment bag be filled with equal
amounts of material.
• When unloading garments, occasionally check under the
rubber rim at the front of the tub for small items.
Close the washer door by pushing it firmly until the lock clicks.
The washer door will remain locked during the wash cycle.
NOTE: After any wash cycle is completed, the door must be
opened and then closed before a new cycle can begin. The
door can be opened only if PAUSE/CANCEL is selected while
the ADD A GARMENT light is glowing or if the cycle has been
canceled. See "To cancel a cycle."
Open the dispenser drawer and add laundry products to the
detergent, bleach, or fabric softener compartments. Close
drawer slowly to avoid spills. See "Using the Dispenser."
NOTE: For best performance, use High Efficiency detergents.
The package for this type of detergent will be marked "HE" or
"High Efficiency." The "wash action" along with less water
could create too much sudsing with a regular detergent.
4. Turn on the washer by selecting one of the WASH CYCLES.
The indicator light for the selected cycle will glow. When
selecting a Wash Cycle, the preset options, Water Temp, Spin
Speed, and Soil Level for the selected cycle will glow. The
display shows the estimated time remaining. The preset
settings provide the recommended fabric care for the
selected cycle. See "Cycles."
5. Select the desired OPTIONS. Not all Options are available
with all cycles. See "Options."
6. Select the desired MODIFIERS. Not all Modifiers are available
with all Cycles and Options. See "Modifiers."
7. If desired, select the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL. The signal is
helpful when you are washing items that should be removed
from the washer as soon as it stops. Select ON or OFR
8. To begin the wash cycle immediately
Select and hold START (for approximately 1 second).
• If you do not select START within 5 minutes of choosing a
cycle, the washer automatically shuts off.
• When the wash cycle is complete, the CLOTHES CLEAN
status light glows, the door unlocks, and the wash load
can be removed from the washer. The washer powers
down automatically 5 minutes after the cycle is complete
and the CLOTHES CLEAN light goes off. To power down
the washer manually after the wash cycle is complete,
select PAUSE/CANCEL once.
