RINSE
You will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the washer
rinses and moves the load. You may hear the motor turning on
briefly (short hum) to move the basket while filling. Fabric softener
will be added if the Fabric Softener option was selected. Some
cycles use spray rinsing.
SPIN
The washer spins the load at increasing speeds for proper water
removal, based on the selected cycle and spin speed.
DONE
Once the cycle is complete, this light will come on. Remove
the load promptly for best results.
SENSING
When the Start/Pause/Unlock button is pressed, the washer will
first perform a self-test on the lid lock mechanism. You will hear
a click, the basket will make a slight turn, and the lid will unlock
briefly before locking again.
Once the lid has locked the second time, the washer will
use short, slow spins to estimate the load size. These sensing
spins may take 2 to 3 minutes before water is added to the load
and you may hear the hum of these spins. If the sensing light is
on, the washer is working properly. You will hear the motor turn
the basket in short pulses to thoroughly wet the load. The washer
will then move the load briefly, pause to allow water to soak in
to the load, and resume adding water. This process may repeat
until the correct amount of water has been added for the load.
You may also hear water flowing through the dispenser, adding
detergent to the load.
NOTE: Avoid opening the lid during sensing. The sensing
process will start over when the washer is restarted. The
sensing light may also come on during the Wash portions
of the cycle. This is normal.
WASH
You will hear the motor and washplate moving the load.
Unlike traditional washers, the load is not covered with water.
Low-water cleaning means concentrated cleaning. Rather than
diluting detergent as done in an agitator-style washer, this washer
delivers the detergent directly to the soils. The motor sounds
may change at different stages in the cycle. The wash time is
determined by the selected soil level.
