Additional Safety Instructions and Your Responsibilities
ALWAYS store detergent, laundry aids
and other materials in a cool, dry
place where children can’t reach
them-in a locked cabinet if possible.
ALWAYS read and follow instructions
on packages of detergent and laun-
dry aids - especially warnings and
precautions.
HAZARDOUS FUMES can be formed if
chlorine bleach is used in the same
wash as ammonia or acids such as
vinegar or rust remover.
ALWAYS unplug the power supply
cord before attempting to service the
washer.
DO NOT machine wash glass fiber
materials. Small particles can stick to
fabrics washed in following loads
and cause skin irritation.
You are personally responsible for
making sure that your washer:
l
is used only for jobs normally ex-
pected of home automatic washers.
l
is not run by children or anyone un-
able to operate it properly. 3
Operating instructions
Starting Your Washer
Be sure to measure and add detergent, then place
a sorted load in the washer before starting it.
l
Turn the knob to point at a setting
that describes the size of load you
want to wash.
l
Set the knob anywhere on or be-
tween EX SMALL (a few small items)
and EX LARGE (a full load].
NOTE: Use the EX LARGE water
level for best permanent press
resulfs.
l
Match the wash and rinse water
temperature to the type of fabrics and
soils being washed.
l
All rinses are cold. Cold rinses save
energy and help prevent wrinkles from
setting into fabrics.
Recommended wash temperatures
can be found in your “Laundry Guide.”
LOAD SIZESAND WATERLEVELS
For best cleaning results, the
load must be able to move freely
in the water. Too big a load or too
little water can cause wear or
