IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill you or hurt you and others. All
safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and the word “DANGER”, “WARNING”, or “CAUTION”. These words are
defined as:
DANGER
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
To reduce the risk of death, fire, explosion, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your
appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:
„ Read all instructions before using the appliance.
„ DO NOT wash or dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted with gasoline,
dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances, as they give off vapors that could ignite or
explode.
„ DO NOT add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances to the wash water. These
substances give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
„ Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot-water system that has not been used for 2
weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, before
using a washing machine, turn on all hot-water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This
will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, DO NOT smoke or use an open flame during
this time.
„ DO NOT allow children to play on or in this appliance. Close supervision of children is necessary when this appliance
is used near children. Before the washer is removed from service or discarded, remove the door or lid. Failure to
follow these instructions may result in death or injury to persons.
„ DO NOT reach into the appliance if the tub or agitator is moving to prevent accidental entanglement.
Consumer Support

Changing the SPIN setting changes the final spin speed of the cycles. Always follow the garment
manufacturer’s care label when changing the SPIN setting.
To change the SPIN setting, press the SPIN setting button until you have reached the desired
setting. You can choose between No Spin, Low, Medium, High or Extra High Spin. Higher spin
speeds are not available on certain cycles, such as Delicates.
Higher spin speeds remove more water from the clothes and will help reduce dry time, but may
also increase the possibility of setting wrinkles on some fabrics.
Wash Temp
Adjust to select the proper water temperature for the wash cycle. The rinse water is always cold
to help reduce energy usage and reduce setting of stains and wrinkles.
Follow the fabric manufacturer’s care label when selecting the wash temperature.
To change the wash temperature, press the TEMP button until you have reached the desired
setting. You can choose between Tap Cold, Cold, Warm, Hot or Sanitize. The Sanitized wash
temperature is not available on certain cycles, such as Delicates.
When selecting the Sanitize wash temperature, the washer increases the water temperature to
sanitize and kill more than 99% of many common bacteria found in home laundry. The sanitize
wash temperature is only available on the Whites/Heavy Duty wash cycle. For best results, select
the heavy soil setting when using the Sanitize wash temperature setting.

Either powdered or liquid high-efficiency
detergent can be used.
„ Detergent usage may need to be
adjusted for water temperature, water
hardness, size and soil level of the load.
Avoid using too much detergent in your
washer since it can lead to oversudsing
and detergent residue being left on the
clothes.

WATER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
Read these instructions completely
and carefully.
Hot and cold water faucets MUST be installed within
42 inches (107 cm) of your washer’s water inlet. The faucets
MUST be 3/4” (1.9 cm) garden hose-type so inlet hoses
can be connected. Water pressure MUST be between 10
and 120 pounds per square inch. Your water department
can advise you of your water pressure. The hot water
temperature should be set to deliver water at 120° to 140°F
(48°–60°C)
to provide proper Automatic Temperature Control (ATC)
performance.
:$51,1*³TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK AND PERSONAL INJURY:
• DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD OR AN ADAPTER
PLUG WITH THIS APPLIANCE.
Washer must be electrically grounded in accordance
with local codes and ordinances or, in the absence
of local codes, in accordance with the NATIONAL
ELECTRICAL CODE, ANSI/NFPA NO. 70.
DRAIN REQUIREMENTS
CIRCUIT – Individual, properly polarized and grounded
15-amp branch circuit fused with 15-amp, time-delay fuse

(76 cm)
Min.
1. The washer MUST be grounded. In the event of
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce
the risk of electrical shock by providing a path of least
resistance for electrical current.
2. Since your washer is equipped with a power supply
cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and
a grounding plug, the plug MUST be plugged into an
appropriate, copper-wired receptacle that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances or in the absence of local codes,
with the National Electrical Codes, ANSI/NFPA 70 (latest
edition). If in doubt, call a licensed electrician. DO NOT
cut off or alter the grounding prong on the power
supply cord. In situations where a two-slot receptacle is
present, it is the owner’s responsibility to have a licensed
electrician replace it with a properly grounded
three-prong, grounding-type receptacle.

the rubber leveling legs when moving your washer
to its final location. Damaged legs can increase washer
vibration. It may be helpful to spray window cleaner on
the floor to help move your washer into its final position.
NOTE: To reduce vibration, ensure that all four rubber
leveling legs are firmly touching the floor. Push and
pull on the back right and then back left of your
washer.
1. Run some water from the hot and cold faucets to flush
the water lines and remove particles that might clog
the water valve screens.
2. Remove the inlet hoses from the plastic bag. Remove
black rubber washers from bag and insert into hose fitting
before connecting to unit.
3. (90° elbow end)
Carefully connect the inlet
hose marked HOT to the
outside “H” outlet of the
water valve. Tighten by hand;
then tighten another 2/3 turn
with pliers. Carefully connect
the other inlet hose to the
inside “C” outlet of the water
valve. Tighten by hand; then
tighten another 2/3 turn with pliers. Do not cross-thread
or overtighten these connections.
NOTE: Do not use the dispenser drawer or door to lift
the washer.
NOTE: If you are installing into a drain pan, you can use
a 24-inch-long 2x4 to lever the washer into place.
6. With the washer in its
final position, place
a level on top of the
washer (if the washer
is installed under a
counter, the washer
should not be able to
rock). Adjust the front
leveling legs up or down
to ensure the washer
is resting solidly. Turn the locknuts on each leg
up toward the base of the washer and snug with
a wrench.
4. Connect the inlet hose ends to the HOT and COLD water
faucets tightly by hand; then tighten another 2/3 turn
with pliers. Turn the water on and check for leaks.
NOTE: Keep the leg extension at a minimum to prevent
excessive vibration. The farther out the legs are
extended, the more the washer will vibrate.
If the floor is not level or is damaged, you may have
to extend the rear leveling legs.

Installation Instructions
9. Turn on the power at the circuit breaker/fuse box.
INSTALLING THE WASHER (cont.)
10. Read the rest of this Owner’s Manual. It contains
valuable and helpful information that will save you
time and money.
7. Attach U-shaped hose guide to the end of the drain
hose. Place the hose in a laundry tub or standpipe.
NOTE: If the drain hose is placed in a standpipe without
forming a U shape, a siphoning action could occur. There
must be an air gap around the drain hose. A snug hose
fit can also cause a siphoning action.
11. Before starting the washer, check to make sure:
8. Plug the power cord into a grounded outlet.
„Main power is turned on.
„The washer is plugged in.
„The water faucets are turned on.
„
The unit is level and all four leveling legs are firmly
on the floor.
„
The shipping support hardware is removed
and saved.
„The drain hose is properly tied up.
„
There are no leaks at the faucet, drain line
or washer.
12. Run the washer through a complete cycle.
Check for water leaks and proper operation.
13. If your washer does not operate, please review
the Before you call for service section before
calling for service.
14. Place these instructions in a location near the washer
for future reference.
