Preset cycle settings
Each cycle has a preset Soil Level (cycle time), Water
Temperature, and Spin Speed. The preset settings provide the
recommended fabric care for the selected cycle. See chart.
To change the preset cycle settings
Press the selector of each setting until the desired setting glows.
Normal Washer Sounds
As with any new product, you will hear sounds that you are not
accustomed to. You may hear various sounds when the door is
locked and unlocked, and during the washing, rinsing, and
spinning process. Between changes in wash actions, there will
be momentary pauses. You will hear water spraying and
splashing during the wash and rinse cycles. These new sounds
and pauses are part of normal washer operation.
Options
You can customize your wash by adding options to your cycle
selections. You can add or change an option after starting a cycle
anytime before the selected option begins. Not all options are
available with all cycles.
See the Laundry Guide for an overview of possible options
for each Wash Cycle selection.
You can select more than one option for a cycle. Some
options cannot be added to some cycles.
If an option is available with a selected cycle, the light for that
option will glow when selected.
If an option is unavailable with a selected cycle, there will be a
short tone, and the light for that option will not glow when
selected.
Delay Wash
Use this to begin the wash cycle later.
Select Delay Wash until the desired time (in hours) shows in
the Estimated Time Remaining display.
Select START. The countdown to the wash cycle will show in
the display window.
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.
Extra Rinse
An extra rinse can be used to ensure the removal of detergent or
bleach residue from garments. This option provides an additional
rinse with the same water temperature as the first rinse.
Modifiers
Preset cycle settings of Water Temperature, Spin Speed, and
Cycle Time 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 cycles and options.
NOTE: The panel shown below may be different from that of your
model.
