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 CYCLE SIGNAL. The signal is helpful
when you are washing items that should be removed from the
washer as soon as it stops. Select LOUD, SOFT or OFF.
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 60 minutes after the cycle is
complete and the CLOTHES CLEAN light goes off.
9. To begin the wash cycle later
Select DELAY START until the desired delay time (in hours)
shows in the Estimated Time Remaining display. Select
START. The countdown to the wash cycle will show in the
display window, and the button indicator will blink until the
cycle begins.
IMPORTANT: When delaying a cycle, use only powdered
detergents in the main wash compartment since liquid
detergents may seep out of the compartment during Delay,
before the wash cycle begins.
Usir riser
Your new washer has a dispenser drawer with three separate
compartments for your laundry products—one is for detergent,
one is for liquid chlorine bleach, and one is for liquid fabric
softener. Laundry products are diluted and dispensed
automatically at the proper time during the wash cycle, making it
unnecessary for you to return to the washer during the cycle to
add them.
It is normal for small amounts of water to remain in the
dispensers when the wash cycle is complete.
Do not put laundry products directly into the wash tub. Always
use the proper dispensers when adding laundry products.
Choosing the Right Detergent
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.
Use only “HE" High Efficiency detergent.
To fill dispenser compartments
1. Pull out the dispenser drawer.
2. Add the desired laundry product to the proper compartment.
3. Push in the dispenser drawer slowly and completely (to avoid
a spill).

Main Wash detergent compartment
(Letters A and B in Dispenser Illustration)
Add liquid or powdered HE detergent to this compartment for
your main wash cycle. The detergent type selector (A) must
always be in the correct position for the detergent type used.
Slide the detergent type selector to the correct position.
IMPORTANT: If you are using the Delay option, powdered
detergent must be used in the main wash compartment since
liquid detergents may seep out of the main wash compartment,
before the main wash begins.
■ Use the detergent manufacturer’s recommended amount for
the load size.
■ Liquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be added to the
Main Wash compartment along with the same type of
detergent, liquid or powdered.
