WASH
You will hear the motor and agitator moving the load.
During the rst stage of the sensing/wash cycle, water
will partially ll the washer and then begin to move the
load. It is normal to have the sensing light on during this
stage. You will hear the agitator rotate, followed by a
several second pause. This process will repeat for several
minutes, allowing the entire load to become saturated.
The lower water level combined with HE detergent at this
stage allows for concentrated cleaning. Concentrated
cleaning delivers the detergent directly to the soils. It is
normal for the load to be above the water line during this
stage. At the beginning of the second stage, the washer
will add water to the correct level based on the load size.
You will hear the agitator move quicker during this stage
of the wash cycle. The motor sounds may change at
different stages in the wash cycle.
RINSE
You will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the
washer rinses and moves the load. For cycles that use
a spray rinse you will hear water enter the washer as
the tub spins, allowing the rinse water to penetrate the
clothes. For cycles that use the extra rinse option, you
will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the washer
rinses and moves the load. Fabric softener will be added
if the Fabric Softener Added-Yes option was selected.
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.
LID LOCKED
To allow for proper load sensing and
spinning, the lid will lock and the Lid
Locked light will turn on. This light
indicates that the lid is locked and
cannot be opened.
If you need to open the lid, press
START/Pause/Unlock. The lid will
unlock once the washer movement
has stopped. This may take several
minutes if the load was spinning at
high speed. Press START/Pause/Unlock
again to resume the cycle. Avoid
opening the lid during sensing. The
sensing process will start over when the
washer is restarted.
