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

the Estimated Time Remaining display.
■ Select START. The countdown to the wash cycle will show in
the display window.

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.

Wash/Rinse 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.
Temperature Guide
In wash water temperatures colder than 70°F (21°C), detergents
do not dissolve well. Soils may be difficult to remove.
ACCUWASH™ Automatic Temperature Control
The ACCUWASH™ control electronically senses and maintains a
uniform water temperature. ACCUWASH control regulates
incoming hot and cold water. ACCUWASH control is
automatically turned On when a cycle is selected. (See “Preset
cycle settings” in “Cycles.”)
■ ACCUWASH™ control ensures consistent cleaning.
■ ACCUWASH™ control works for all wash and rinse
temperature settings.
