About washer features.
Automatic Load Sensing (Not all features are on all models)
This determines the correct agitate profile, agitate duration and amount of water suited to the size and type of load placed in the washer.
The washer will not start the wash cycle or fill with water if the lid is open. When the lid is closed the machine is able to begin filling with
water in order to sense the load size.
NOTE: Automatic Load Sensing initiates a spin at the beginning of the cycle and will take as much as 3 minutes to complete (significantly
shorter for smaller loads); this is normal operation.
NOTE: This is a high efficiency washing machine with agitator wash action. This system requires less water while providing effective cleaning
action. You may notice that the water level is lower than on your previous washer. This is normal for an agitator-equipped washer.
Liquid Fabric Softener Dispenser (Not all features are on all models)
The agitator cap fits into the top of the agitator. If it accidentally comes
off, simply put it back on.
The fabric softener dispenser automatically releases liquid fabric
softener at the proper time during the cycle.
Do not stop the washer or raise the lid during the first spin. This will
cause the dispenser to empty too soon.
To use, follow these steps:
1
Make sure dispenser is securely attached to agitator.
On this model (GTW550) with no softener dispenser or
softener cup the instruction is - dilute the fabric softener in
water and pour in the mix right after the first spin.
Liquid Bleach
Liquid chlorine bleach should be added through the bleach
dispenser in the front left corner. Follow bleach manufacturer's
recommendations for the correct amount of liquid chlorine bleach
based on load size, taking care to not apply or spill it directly on
clothing.
NOTE: Do not use liquid chlorine bleach and laundry pretreatments
such as an Oxi product in the same wash load.
Pretreatment
Place laundry pretreatments, such as an Oxi product, directly in the
bottom of the wash basket before loading clothes.
NOTE: Do not use liquid chlorine bleach and laundry pretreatments
such as an Oxi product in the same wash load.
