1. SORT & LOAD LAUNDRYSee the Loading Recommendation section below.

 

Loading Recommendation

For best performance, it is recommended to load items by dropping them in loose heaps evenly around the swashplate and agitator. Do not lay items length-wise around the swashplate or agitator.

More Water When You Want It

AUTO-SENSING & DEEP FILL

• The washer will adjust the water level to the optimal amount for a High-Efficiency wash of the detected load size.
• Touch “DEEP FILL” to add more water to the wash load.
• There are four levels of deepwater “Auto”, “Medium”, “High”, “Max Fill”.
• Not all levels are available on all cycles.

Cleaning with Less Water

As the washer dampens and moves the load, the level of the items will settle in the basket. This is normal and does not indicate that more items 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 waterline.

Boost Stain Fighting (on selected cycles)

EXTRA POWER Option

• Press the knob to select EXTRA POWER.
• When Extra Power is active the cycle control knob will illuminate.
• Extra Power will increase cleaning power in the cycle selected.

Rinsing Before Running a Wash Cycle

WATER FAUCET OPERATION

• Press the faucet button once to turn it on.
• To turn the faucet off press the button again.
• The faucet will automatically shut off after 10 minutes or when the max water level is reached.
• Water will automatically drain if the water level becomes too high or if the lid is left open for 10 minutes.
