OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Fire Hazard
Never place items in the washer that are dampened
with gasoline or other flammable fluids.
No washer can completely remove oil.
Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil
on it (including cooking oils).
Doing so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to
persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS, located in
your appliance’s Owner’s Manual, before operating this appliance.

Products” section for more

ADDING LAUNDRY PRODUCTS
IMPORTANT: Using non-HE detergent will likely result in longer cycle
times and reduced rinsing performance. It may also result in component
malfunction and, over time, buildup of mold or mildew. HE detergents
should be low-sudsing and quick-dispersing to produce the right amount
of suds for the best performance.
Adding HE detergent to basket:
Add a measured amount of HE detergent or single-dose
laundry packets into the basket. If using Oxi-type
boosters, colorsafe bleach, or fabric softener crystals,
add to the bottom of the washer basket before adding
clothes.
NOTE: Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to
determine the amount of laundry products to use.
Adding liquid chlorine bleach:
Do not overfill, dilute, or use more than 1 cup (236 mL).
Do not use color-safe bleach or Oxi products in the
same cycle with liquid chlorine bleach.
Adding liquid fabric softener to dispenser:
Pour a measured amount of liquid fabric
softener into dispenser; always follow
manufacturer’s directions for correct
amount of fabric softener based on your
load size. Dilute liquid fabric softener by
filling the dispenser with warm water until
liquid reaches the underside of the rim. See
Max Fill line arrows.
IMPORTANT: The rinse option
One with Softener must be
selected to ensure proper
distribution at correct time in cycle.
IMPORTANT: Retain this guide for future use.

DEEP FILL
Use this option to automatically add more water to your wash
cycle. You can also use this option to reduce the likelihood of
white residue on dark clothing.
PRE SOAK
Touch to add a 30 minute pre soak period to help loosen tough
stains. The washer will fill, pause to soak, and then begin the
selected cycle.
FAUCET
Press to access an instant water stream. Use this feature to
pretreat clothes and other items right in the washer. You can also
use this feature to manually add water to the machine as desired.
NOTE: The washer will drain at the beginning of the cycle if a
large volume of water is detected to ensure the machine can
correctly sense the load size.
NOTE: If the washer detects an out-of-balance condition it may
pause and attempt and re-distribute the load. During this time the
Sensing Fill and Washing status indicators will both briefly
illuminate.
WARNING: Do not wash water-resistant or water repellant-type
clothing. Failure to closely follow these instructions may result in an
abnormal vibrating and out-of-balance condition that could result in
physical injury, property damage, and/or appliance damage.
CHOOSING THE RIGHT CYCLE
A cycle guide for your washer can
be found online at www.crosley.
com. The document will help
identify which cycle to choose for
various load types as well as the
default cycle options. For example
we recommend using the MEDIUM
SOIL NORMAL cycle with Warm
water for cottons, linens and mixed
garment loads.
PRE-TREATING
■ Press the Faucet button once to
turn on and press again to turn off.
■ Faucet will automatically shut off
after 10 minutes or when max
water level is reached.
■ Water will automatically drain if
water level becomes too high.
Water will also drain after 10
minutes if the lid is left open or 3
hours if the lid is left closed.
AUTO SENSING AND DEEP FILL
■ The washer will adjust the water level to
the optimal amount for a High Efficiency
wash of the detected load size.
■ Press DEEP FILL to automatically add
more water to your wash cycle.
■ It is recommended to use BULKY cycle
with DEEP FILL option for loads where
maximum water level is desired.
■ Expect longer cycle times due to
extended fill duration when using the
DEEP FILL option.
CLEANING WITH LESS WATER
The washer has been designed and
optimized to provide a thorough cleaning
using less water to conserve energy and
resources.
As the washer dampens and moves the
load, the level of the items will settle in the
basket. This is normal, and does not
indicate that more items should be added.
IMPORTANT: You will not see a full basket
of water as with older, less efficient washing
machines. It is normal for some of the load
to be above the water line.
For detailed installation instruction and maintenance information, winter storage, and transportation tips, please see the Owner’s Manual
included with your machine.
