HOW TO WASH Operating Steps Before using the washer for the first time, wipe the inside and outside with a damp cloth to remove any travel dust that has accumulated and we recommend operating a rinse cycle to rinse out your machine. Be sure the hot and cold water faucets are turned on fully. Make sure that the power cord is plugged in and that the circuit is energized. To familiarize you with a load of convenience we suggest "Your First Load" be typical queen-size bedding.
HOW TO USE YOUR NEW WASHER-DRYER • Load the drum with clothes as previously described. Close the door. • Select a program. See chart below/11. • Select drying time (and half heat if required). • Select desired spin speed (high spin only occurs in regular wash cycle). • Put the detergent, bleach and fabric conditioner into the dispenser. • Press the ON-OFF button to start the machine. Note: Woolen garments should under no circumstances be tumble dried.

WINTERIZING • Turn off the hot and cold water source to machine. • Set machine to fill in regular cycle on warm wash. • Turn machine on for a few minutes so machine can take on any water. • Lift inlet hoses to assure no water is left in inlet hoses. • Turn unit off. • Advance the wash timer to spin cycle and turn on. This will activate the water pump and will evacuate as much water as possible. • Turn unit to off. • Place a towel under the drain filter area and remove drain filter.
