OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Cycle Settings, continued
This manual covers many models and not all cycles, options, or features listed are available
on every model. Console shown above for reference only. Your model may differ.
To select or delete the Energy Saver (if equipped), Extra
Rinse, Stain Clean, Extended Spin (if equipped) or Signal
Volume, press Options until the blinking light indicates
the desired option. Then, while it is blinking, press
Select. The indicator will light when the option has been
selected. It will no longer be lighted when the option has
been removed.
Not all options are available on every model or are
compatible with every cycle. The indicator will not light if
the option is not available with that cycle.
The options selected for the cycle will be remembered and
recalled each time that cycle is selected in the future. To
return to factory settings, press the Start/Pause and Select
buttons at the same time and hold until the signal sounds.
Energy Saver (on select models)
The Energy Saver option reduces the warm water
temperature a few degrees to save energy and also
extracts more water to reduce drying time.
Extra Rinse
Use this option when additional rinsing is desired to
remove excess dirt and detergent. It is recommended
for heavily soiled loads or if household members have
sensitive skin. Extra Rinse occurs before the final rinse
when the liquid fabric softener is dispensed.
SOIL LEVEL
Adjust the wash time in 3-minute increments based on
the soil level of each load. Heavy, Normal, and Light Soil
Levels are available.

the pause button, make the new selection and press
start again.
Stain Clean
Use the Stain Clean option to add a 5-minute soak in
the middle of the wash portion of any cycle except
Quick and Hand Wash.
Extended Spin (on select models)
Use this option to add several additional minutes to the
final spin at the selected speed. This will improve water
extraction and decrease drying time.
Signal Volume
A signal will sound at the end of the cycle if this option
is selected. The signal has an adjustable volume level
or can be turned off.
Delay Start

your schedule or during off peak energy hours. The start
