2nd Rinse
A second rinse can be used to aid in the removal of detergent or
bleach residue from garments. This option provides an additional
rinse with the same water temperature as the Normal rinse. This
is the default rinse setting for the Whitest Whites cycle.
Extended Spin
Use this option to add an additional spin to any cycle to improve
drying times for some heavy fabrics or special-care items by
reducing excess water, which may save energy.
Button Sounds
Button sounds are used to notify you of what has been selected
or to let you know when something is not available. Button
sounds may be turned on or off by selecting BUTTON SOUNDS.
Delay Start
To begin the wash cycle later, select DELAY START until the
desired delay time (in hours) shows in the Estimated Time
Remaining display, and then select START. The countdown to the
wash cycle will show in the display window, and the button
indicator will blink until the cycle begins.
IMPORTANT: When delaying a cycle, use only powdered
detergents in the main wash compartment since liquid detergents
may seep out of the compartment during Delay, before the wash
cycle begins.
Cycle Signal
This signal is helpful when you are removing items from the
washer as soon as it stops. Select Loud, Soft or Off.
Modifiers
Preset cycle settings of Water Temperature, Spin Speed, and
Rinse Options can be changed. You can change a modifier after
starting a cycle anytime before the selected Modifier begins. Not
all Modifiers are available with all options and cycles. Available
modifier settings will glow amber. Current selections will glow
green. If an option is unavailable with a selected cycle, the light
will not illuminate.
To change cycle time, select SOIL LEVEL button.
To change the water temperature, select the WASH TEMP
button until the desired setting glows green.
To change the spin speed, select the SPIN SPEED button
until the desired setting glows green.
Wash Temp
Select a water temperature based on the type of load you are
washing. Use the warmest wash water safe for fabrics. Follow
garment label instructions.
Warm rinses leave the loads dryer than cold rinses. Warm rinses
increase wrinkling. In cold climates, a warm rinse makes the load
more comfortable to handle. Cold rinses save energy.
Extra Hot is available only with the Sanitary cycle
In wash water temperatures colder than 60°F (15.6°C),
detergents do not dissolve well. Soils may be difficult to
remove.
Auto Temp Control
ATC (Auto Temp Control) electronically senses and maintains a
uniform 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 works for the wash temperature with Extra Hot, Hot,
Warm, and Cool settings.
The Cold wash temperature depends on the cold water at
your faucet.
ATC works for the rinse temperature where the wash temp
setting is marked with an asterisk, such as Warm*. All other
rinse temperatures are cold.
