To Wash Clothes
IMPORTANT: Before using your new washer,
make sure the washer cord is plugged into a
120 Volt electrical outlet that has the proper
grounding and polarity. Make sure the washer
hoses are connected to the hot and cold water
faucets, and that the faucets are turned on. Be
sure the drain hose is not kinked and is inserted
into a drain. Refer to the INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS for details of proper washer
installation.
IMPORTANT: Prior to first wash, use an all
purpose cleaner, or a detergent and water
solution, and a damp cloth to remove shipping
dust from inside of wash drum.
1. Get the clothes ready for washing. Empty
pockets and cuffs. Sort items into separate
loads. Pretreat stains and heavily soiled areas.
IMPORTANT: Remove all sharp objects from
laundry to avoid tears and rips to items
during normal machine operation.
2. Measure and add low sudsing, high
efficiency (HE) detergent, fabric softener
and bleach to the dispenser drawer. Refer to
section on Using Your Dispenser Drawer.
Follow instructions on detergent package for
amount to use.
NOTE: High efficiency (HE)
detergents are designed
especially for frontload
washers to reduce oversudsing
and maximize cleaning results.
Look for the HE logo or “high efficiency” on the
detergent’s label.
IMPORTANT: If using detergents made for
topload washers, avoid oversudsing by using
only 1/4 cup regular detergent (1/2 of the
recommended amount).
3. Load clothes into wash drum. Refer to
section on Load Sizes.
NOTE: Small items such as baby socks may get
caught around the door. Place these articles
inside a mesh garment bag.
4. Close the loading door tightly. The washer will
not operate with the loading door open.
