WASHER SAFETY
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all
safety messages.
This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word “DANGER” or
“WARNING.” These words mean:
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't
immediately follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't
follow instructions.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you
what can happen if the instructions are not followed.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the washer, follow basic
precautions, including the following:
■
Read all instructions before using the washer.
■ Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. Close
supervision of children is necessary when the washer
is used near children.
■ Do not wash articles that have been previously
cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with
gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, other flammable,
or explosive substances as they give off vapors
that could ignite or explode.
discarded,
■ Before the washer is removed from service or
remove the lid.
■ Do not reach into the washer if the tub or agitator is
moving.
■
Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or
other flammable, or explosive substances to the
wash water. These substances give off vapors
that could ignite or explode.
■ Do not install or store the washer where it will be
exposed to the weather.
■ Do not tamper with controls.
■ Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be
produced in a hot water system that has not been
used for 2 weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS
EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not
been used for such a period, before using the
washing machine, turn on all hot water faucets
and let the water flow from each for several
minutes. This will release any accumulated
hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not
smoke or use an open flame during this time.
■ Do not repair or replace any part of the washer or
attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended
in this Use and Care Guide or in published user-repair
instructions that you understand and have the skills to
carry out.
■ See Installation Instructions for grounding
requirements.

You may change the load size selection after the washer
has started filling by turning the selector to a different
setting.
WARNING
5. Set the TEMPERATURE selector to the correct setting for the
type of fabric and soils being washed. Use the warmest water
safe for fabric. Follow garment label instructions.

■
Your washer uses ACCUWASH automatic temperature
control. The ACCUWASH feature maintains a uniform
water temperature by regulating incoming hot and cold
water. This helps eliminate undissolved detergent and
ensures consistent cleaning results. The cold wash is
regulated at approximately 75ºF (24ºC). The warm wash is
maintained at approximately 100ºF (38ºC).
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
NOTE: Make sure that both hot and cold water faucets
are turned on or the ACCUWASH feature will not work

you make the best cycle selections for your wash loads. Each
cycle is designed for different types of fabric and soil levels.
■
The end of Cycle Signal is helpful when you are washing
items that should be removed from the washer as soon as
the cycle ends.
■
The washer pauses briefly throughout each cycle. These
pauses are normal. Refer to “Normal Washer Sounds” to
learn more about the sounds you may hear during a wash

This cycle features high-speed agitation for cleaning cottons and
linens, and high spin times to shorten drying time. Select up to 15
minutes of wash time, depending on whether your load is lightly,
moderately or heavily soiled. For lightly soiled cotton and linen
fabrics, use the shortest time setting.
Adding liquid chlorine bleach
Pour measured liquid chlorine bleach into the liquid chlorine
bleach dispenser. Bleach will be dispensed automatically into the

heavily soiled loads that need maximum soil removal. Use two
times the recommended amount of detergent for this cycle.
Casual/Permanent Press cycle
This cycle starts with high-speed agitation and then steps to low-
speed agitation for cleaning permanent press blends and
synthetic fabrics. To minimize wrinkling, this cycle features a
cool-down rinse and a low-speed final spin. Select up to 9
minutes of wash time for lightly to moderately soiled loads.

Never use more than 1 cup (250 mL) for a full load. Use less
for a smaller load size.

■
Follow the manufacturer’s directions for safe use.
This cycle features extra low-speed agitation for gentle soil
removal from delicate items and washable knits. Low spin
speeds minimize wrinkling. Select 3 or 6 minutes of wash time,
depending on your model, to clean lightly to moderately soiled

Cleaning the liquid fabric softener dispenser
This cycle features a series of brief, low speed agitations and
short soaks to gently clean special-care items. Low spin speeds
minimize wrinkling. Wash small loads. If items appear to be
floating (due to trapped air), stop the washer by pushing in the
Cycle Control knob. Push items down into the washer. Pull out
the Cycle Control knob to restart the washer.
Flush dispenser periodically with warm water, as shown. Remove
the dispenser by grasping the top of the dispenser with both
hands and squeezing and pushing upwards with thumbs. Clean
the dispenser by rinsing it under a water faucet. Replace it after
cleaning.
NOTE: Do not wash clothes with this dispenser removed. Do not
add detergent or bleach to this dispenser; it is for liquid fabric

special-care items, you may find an extra rinse and spin is
needed.
1. Push in the Cycle Control knob and turn it clockwise to any of

Self-Clean in g Lin t Filter
Your washer has a self-cleaning lint filter at the bottom of the
basket. Wash and rinse water flow over the filter during agitation,
separating the lint from the water. The lint spins out of the system
during the spin part of the cycle.
Install and store your washer where it will not freeze. Because
some water may stay in the hoses, freezing can damage your
washer. If storing or moving your washer during freezing weather,
winterize it.
Non-use or vacation care
Operate your washer only when you are at home. If you will be on
vacation or not using your washer for an extended period of time,
you should:
■ Unplug washer or disconnect power.
■ Turn off the water supply to the washer. This helps avoid
accidental flooding (due to a water pressure surge) while you
are away.
If your washer drains into a tub, remove any lint collected in the
tub or strainer.
To winterize washer
1. Shut off both water faucets.
2. Disconnect and drain water inlet hoses.
WASHER CARE
3. Put 1 quart (1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze in the basket.
4. Run washer on a drain and spin setting (see “Drain and Spin”)
for about 30 seconds to mix the antifreeze and water.
Clean in g You r Wash er
5. Unplug washer or disconnect power.
Cleaning the exterior
To use washer again
1. Flush water pipes and hoses.
Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to wipe up any spills such as
detergent or bleach. Occasionally wipe the outside of your
washer to keep it looking new.
2. Reconnect water inlet hoses.
3. Turn on both water faucets.
Cleaning the interior
Clean your washer interior by mixing 1 cup (250 mL) of chlorine
bleach and 2 cups (500 mL) of detergent. Pour this into your
washer and run it through a complete cycle using hot water.
Repeat this process if necessary.
4. Plug in washer or reconnect power.
5. Run the washer through a complete cycle with 1 cup (250 mL)
of detergent to clean out antifreeze.
NOTE: Remove any hard water deposits using only cleaners
labeled as washer safe.

DAMAGES.
Outside the 50 United States and Canada, this warranty does
not apply. Contact your authorized Whirlpool dealer to
determine if another warranty applies.
Some states and provinces do not allow the exclusion or
limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so this
exclusion or limitation may not apply to you. This warranty gives
you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which
vary from state to state or province to province.
If you need service, first see “Troubleshooting”. Additional help
can be found by checking “Assistance or Service”. In the U.S.A,
call our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-253-1301 from
anywhere in the U.S.A. or write: Whirlpool Brand Home

Dept., 2000 North M-63, Benton Harbor, MI 49022-2692. In
Canada, call Inglis Limited at 1-800-807-6777.
