Soil Level
Soil Level (wash time) is preset for each wash cycle. See “Preset
Cycle Settings” in “Cycles.” As you press the Soil Level pad,
the cycle time will increase or decrease in the Estimated Time
Remaining display and a different wash time will appear. To get
the minimum wash time, press the pad until the indicator light
next to Light illuminates. This is the shortest wash time available
for that cycle with the wash options selected.
For most loads, use the time recommended in the preset cycle
settings.
For heavy soil and sturdy fabrics, press Soil Level to select
more wash time, if needed.
For light soil and delicate fabrics, press Soil Level to select less
wash time, if needed.
Auto Temperature Control
Auto Temperature Control (ATC) electronically senses and
maintains a uniform wash and rinse water temperature. ATC
regulates incoming hot and cold water. The ATC is automatically
turned On when a cycle is selected. (See “Preset Cycle Settings”
in “Cycles.”)
ATC is available with Warm/Warm, Warm/Cold, and Cool/Cold
settings. The water temperature in the Hot/Cold and Cold/Cold
settings depends on the water temperature at the water inlet
faucets.
ATC ensures consistent cleaning.
Heated water consumes the largest amount of energy that a
washer uses.
Today’s detergents work well at temperatures above 60°F
(15.6°C).
Options
Use these pads to select or deselect the options for your wash
cycle. Options may add time to the wash cycle.
Water Save Spray Rinse
The Water Save Spray Rinse option reduces rinse water in the
cycle. This option is available on most cycles and must be selected
prior to the start of the cycle. Do not use liquid fabric softener
with the Water Save Spray Rinse option. Select the Fabric Softener
option if using liquid fabric softener to assure proper dispensing.
Fabric Softener
Fabric Softener option must be selected if liquid fabric softener is
added to the fabric softener dispenser. Fabric softener will also be
dispensed in the last rinse of the Extra Rinse cycle, if selected. This
option ushes the dispenser at the correct time in a deep water
rinse for optimal distribution.
Extra Rinse
An Extra Rinse can be used to aid in the removal of detergent or
bleach residue, or particulates such as sand and lint, from the
load. This option provides an additional rinse with the same water
temperature as the rst rinse. This is the default rinse setting for the
Whites cycle.
End Signal - Off - Low - Hi Cycle Volume
The End Signal produces an audible sound when the wash cycle is
nished. This signal is helpful when you are removing items from
the washer as soon as it stops. Select Off, Low, or Hi for volume
sound.
Changing Cycles, Modiers,
and Options
You can change Cycles, Modiers, and Options anytime before
Start/Pause is pressed. Not all Modiers and Options are available
for all cycles.
A short tone sounds when a change is selected. If you press
and hold the End Signal option for more than ve seconds,
all valid beeps will be eliminated. To turn the signals back on,
press and hold the End Signal button for ve seconds.
Three short tones sound if an unavailable combination is
selected. The last selection will not be accepted.
To return all options and modiers to Factory Default, press
POWER/CANCEL, select Drain & Spin cycle, and then press
Extra Rinse, Fabric Softener, Extra Rinse, Fabric Softener within
5 seconds. When done correctly, the 7-segment displays show
“Fd” for 3 seconds and then unit returns to Standby Mode.

Normal Sounds
Your new washer may make sounds your old one didn’t. Because
the sounds might be unfamiliar, you may be concerned about
them. These sounds are normal.
During washing
You will hear spin/spray noise throughout the cycle.
During drain
If water is drained quickly from your washer (depending on your
installation), you may hear air being pulled through the pump
during the end of draining.
During wash and spin
This washer does not have a transmission. The motor provides
direct drive for agitation and spin. You will hear sounds that are
different from those of a conventional washer.
