OPERATION
ENGLISH
Loading the Washer
•
Check and empty pockets. Paper clips, coins,
matches, etc. can damage clothing and the washer.
•
Close zippers and hooks, and tie drawstrings to
prevent snagging or tangling of clothes.
•
Pretreat heavily stained areas for best results.
•
Combine large and small items in a load. Load large
items first. Large items should not be more than half
of total load.
•
The washer can be fully loaded, but the drum
should not be tightly packed with items. The door of
the washer must close easily.
•
Do not wash single small items. Add 1-2 similar
items to the load to prevent an out-of-balance load.
•
Wash thick, bulky items individually. Heavy blankets,
comforters, bedspreads, or pet beds can get
tangled or cause an unbalanced load if combined
with other items.
•
Do not wash/spin waterproof items. Washing
raincoats or sleeping bags may result in abnormal
vibration or may cause the load to bounce, which
could damage the drum.
•
Wash small, light items in a mesh bag. Items like
underwear can get caught in the door seal, and
a brassiere hook may damage other items or the
drum.
•
Brush off heavy soil, dust, and hair from items
before washing. Excess dirt or sand can abrade
other fabrics and lead to poor wash performance.
•
For best performance, load clothes as shown.

-
Load clothes loosely, and do not overfill the drum.
Clothes need room to circulate in order to get
clean.
- Do not press down on items while stacking them in
the drum.
Control Lock
Use this option to disable the controls. This feature
can prevent children from changing cycles or
operating the machine. The feature does not lock
the door. Once the Control Lock is set, it must be
deactivated before any controls, except the
Power
button, can be used. Once the washer has shut off,
the
Power
button will allow the machine to be turned
on, but the controls will still be locked. When the
controls are locked,
will display alternately with
the estimated time remaining.
Locking/Unlocking the Control Panel
Press and hold the
Control Lock
button for 3
seconds.
NOTE
•
Turning off the power will not reset the Control Lock
function. You must deactivate Control Lock before
you can access any other functions.
•
When Control Lock is turned on, you cannot operate
any buttons except the
Power
button.
