2. Once the bolt is loose, move it to the center of the hole and

completely pull out the bolt, including the plastic spacer
covering the bolt.

pull the power cord through the opening of the rear panel and
close the hole with the attached cap.

4. Close the bolt holes with the 4 transport bolt hole plugs.

NOTE: If the washer is to be transported at a later date, call your
local service center. To prevent suspension and structural
damage, your machine must be properly set up for relocation by
a certified technician.

Connect the Inlet Hoses

Make sure the washer drum is empty.

1. Attach the hose with the red color indicator to the Hot (left)

inlet valve. Attaching the red coupling first makes it easier to
tighten connection with pliers. Screw on coupling by hand
until it is seated on the washer.

2. Attach the hose with the blue color indicator to the Cold

(right) water inlet valve. Screw on coupling by hand until it is
seated on the washer.

3. Using pliers, check the tightness of the hose couplings

already attached to the washer.

NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the coupling can
result.

4. Attach the hose with the red color indicator to the hot water

faucet. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the
washer.

5. Attach the hose with the blue color indicator to the cold water

faucet. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the
washer.

6. Using pliers, tighten the couplings with an additional

two-thirds turn.

NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the coupling can
result.

7. Turn on the water faucets and check for leaks.

NOTE: Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the
risk of hose failure. Record hose installation or replacement
dates on the hoses for future reference.

Periodically inspect and replace hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts,
wear, or leaks are found.

Route the Drain Hose

Proper routing of the drain hose protects your floors from
damage due to water leakage. Carefully read and follow these
instructions.

The drain hose is connected to your washer.

To prevent drain water from going back into the washer:

■

Do not straighten the drain hose, and do not force excess
drain hose into standpipe. Hose should be secure, but loose
enough to provide a gap for air.

■

Do not lay excess hose on the bottom of the laundry tub.

Floor drain

You may need additional parts. See Floor Drain under “Tools and
Parts.”

Starting Your Washer

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to
persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before
operating this appliance.

The following is a guide to using your washer. Please refer to
specific sections of this manual for more detailed information.

Do not store laundry products on the top surface of this washer.
Vibration is normal during operation.

First Wash Cycle Without Laundry
Before washing clothes for the first time, select the NORMAL/
CASUAL cycle and run the washer without clothes. Use

¹⁄₂ the

normal recommended amount of powdered or liquid High
Efficiency (HE) detergent. This initial cycle serves to ensure the
interior is clean before washing clothes.

1. To load washer

Open the washer door by pulling on the handle. Sort laundry
according to color and type of fabric. Place a load of sorted
clothes in the washer. Do not overload washer. Overloading
can cause poor cleaning.

■

The washer can be fully loaded, but not tightly packed.
Washer door should close easily.

■

Mix large and small items and avoid washing single items.
Load evenly.

■

Wash small items, such as infant socks, in mesh garment
bags. It is recommended that more than one garment bag
be used, and that each garment bag be filled with equal
amounts of material.

■

When unloading garments, occasionally check under the
rubber rim at the front of the tub for small items.

2. Close the washer door by pushing it firmly until the lock

clicks. The washer door will remain locked during the wash
cycle.

NOTE: After any wash cycle is completed, the door must be
opened and then closed before a new cycle can begin. The
door can be opened only if PAUSE/CANCEL is selected while
the ADD A GARMENT light is glowing or if the cycle has been
canceled. See “To Cancel a Cycle.”

3. Open the Dispenser Drawer and add laundry products to the

detergent, bleach, or fabric softener compartments. Close
drawer slowly to avoid spills. See “Using the Dispenser.”

NOTE: For best performance, use High Effficiency
detergents. The package for this type of detergent will be
marked “HE” or “High Efficiency.” The wash action along with
less water could create too much sudsing with a regular
detergent.

indicator light for the selected cycle will glow. When selecting
a wash cycle, the preset Options, Water Temp, Spin Speed,
and soil level for the selected cycle will glow. The display
shows the estimated time remaining. The preset settings
provide the recommended fabric care for the selected cycle.
See “Cycles.”

from the washer as soon as it stops. Select LOUDER or
SOFTER.
