mixture is used on the load. The Efficient Detergent System
ensures that no water or detergent is wasted.
6-Point Suspension System
Shock absorbers, 2 springs and electronic controls are specially
designed to help redistribute the load automatically and minimize
movement of the wash drum during the spin cycle. The 6-Point
Suspension System reduces the amount of force transmitted to
the floor by the washer, resulting in reduced noise, and vibration.
WASHER USE
Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package for this type of
detergent will be marked "HE" or "High Efficiency." This wash
system, along with less water, will create too much sudsing with a
regular non-HE detergent. Using regular detergent will likely result
in washer errors, 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. Remember, concentrated detergents such as 2x or higher
will use less detergent based on load size.
First Wash Cycle Without Laundry
Before washing clothes for the first time, if not completed during
the final installation step, choose the Normal/Casual cycle and run
it without clothes. Use only HE High Efficiency detergent. Use
the manufacturer's recommended amount for a medium-size
load. This initial cycle serves to ensure the interior is clean before
washing clothes.
For All Wash Cycles
1. Open the washer door by pulling on the handle. Sort laundry
according to color and type of fabric. Place a load of sorted
