REINSTALLING/USING WASHER AGAIN

To reinstall washer after non-use, vacation, winter storage, or

moving:

Refer to Installation Instructions to locate, level, and

connect washer.

Before using again, run washer through the following

recommended procedure:

To use washer again:

Flush water pipes and hoses. Reconnect water inlet hoses.

Turn on both water faucets.

Plug in washer or reconnect power.

Run washer through NORMAL cycle to clean washer and

remove antifreeze, if used. Use only HE detergent. Use half

the manufacturer’s recommended amount for a medium-size

load.

Today’s liquid HE detergents are concentrated. Most brands of

concentrated HE detergent will show the level of concentration on

the bottle. If so, simply set the concentration level in the Optimal

Dispense menu to match the level shown on the bottle.

However, if the detergent bottle does not give the concentration, it

can be easily calculated. Just divide the package size in ﬂuid ounces

by the number of loads. Then refer to the chart below to ﬁnd the

concentration.

If you do not get your desired cleaning results, try using a lower

concentration number. If you have excess suds, try using a higher

concentration number.
