For Model LA7685XP The SUDS-MISER System
Your washer has the SUDS-MISER^ System. It has two drain hoses.
One hose moves a portion of used wash water into a storage tub
and moves it back info the washer for use during the next wash.
The other hose carries water to another tub with an open drain, or
to a standpipe drain.
If you do not want to re-use wash water for a load, leave the
stopper out of the storage tub so the water drains away.

The SUDS-MISER System stores a portion of the wash water.
If you have a storage tub big enough to hold 25 gallons (95
liters) of water, you can have a qualified installer convert your
washer to save more of the water.
To save wash water
Be sure the stopper is in the storage tub. The SUDS-MISER System
does not save rinse water from any cycle, nor does it save wash
water from the PERMANENT PRESS Cycle.
To re-use wash water
1. Set Cycle Control Knob on
SUDS (see illustration).
2. Pull the Control Knob out. The
washer will pump most of the
water from the storage tub
bock info the washer basket
Do not add clothes at this
time. The washer will finish fill­
ing with fresh water.
3. When the water has pumped
back into the washer, push in
the Cycle Control Knob.
4. Add dbout V

to start the washer.
7. Drain the storage tub. Water
still in the tub will have any soil
that has settled out. The hose
is cut on an angle to leave be­
hind about an inch of water
and any soil from previous
wash.
