Soil
Soil level (wash time) is preset for each wash cycle.
When
you change the soil setting,
the cycle time will increase or
decrease in the Estimated Time Remaining display.
For most loads, use the soil level that is preset with the
cycle you have chosen. For heavily soiled and sturdy
fabrics,
use the Soil setting
to select more wash time. For
lightly soiled and delicate fabrics,
use the Soil setting
to
select less wash time. Lower soil level settings will help
reduce tangling and wrinkling.
Presoak
Touch to add a Presoak time of your choice to a wash
cycle. Items will gently tumble thorugh the detergent and
water for the selected time to help loosen tough stains.
OPTIONS
Touch to activate additional wash options or additional
features on the washer. Not all options are available on all
models.
Adjust Delay Time
Touch – or + to delay the start of the wash cycle by up to
12 hours.
Fan Dry Option
The Fan Dry option will periodically tumble the load
after the end of the cycle for up to 12 hours while the
integrated fan circulates air through the washer to
reduce humidity. To turn on the Fan Dry option, touch
Fan Dry. If, however, the Fan Dry option is turned on, it
will stay on for all future cycles until turned back off – the
washer remembers the last on/off status set. To turn off
the Fan Dry option, touch Fan Dry.
You may also activate the Fan Dry option without
running a cycle by touching and holding POWER for
one second, then touching and holding Fan Dry
for
3 seconds, then touching and holding START for
3 seconds.
To turn off the Fan Dry option when it is running, touch
POWER.
NOTE: The door will lock while the Fan Dry option
is active. To cancel the option and unlock the door,
touch POWER.
Extra Rinse
Activate this option to add an extra rinse to most cycles.
NOTE: Some cycles include this feature as a default.
See “Cycle Guide” for details.
Drum Light
Touch and hold EXTRA RINSE for 3 seconds to turn on
the Drum Light.
Cycle Signal
Use this option to turn on or off the signal that sounds
at end of cycle.
To turn off the tones that sound when a setting is
touched: Touch and hold CYCLE SIGNAL for about
3 seconds. Repeat to turn them on.

START to pause the cycle, or touch POWER to turn off
the washer.
ECOBOOST
™
OPTION
Touch to activate the EcoBoost
™
option. The EcoBoost
™
option provides additional energy savings through reduced
hot water usage and maintains cleaning performance by
lengthening the wash time on some cycles.
STEAM CLEAN
The Steam Clean option adds additional soak and wash time
to many cycles to help remove tough stains, as well as a
steam boost for added cleaning power. An integrated heater
helps to maintain optimal wash temperatures. See the “Cycle
Guide” for cycles that allow the Steam Clean option.
PRECISION DISPENSE DRAWER
The Precision Dispense drawer gives you the convenience
of automatically adding HE detergent, liquid chlorine bleach,
and liquid fabric softener to the wash load at the proper
time. See “Using the Precision Dispense Drawer” for
information on using the dispenser drawer.

(550 ml) of liquid HE detergent, enough for up to 36
†
loads, depending on cycle and detergent concentration.
The cartridge ts into compartment (B) of the dispenser
drawer for convenient loading.

†
The number of loads will vary, depending on detergent concentration,
load size, cycle used, and soil level. The maximum capacity of up to
36 loads requires use of 6x concentration detergent.
Choosing the Right Detergent
Use only High Efciency detergents. The package will be marked
“HE” or “High Efciency.” Low-water washing creates excessive
sudsing with a non-HE detergent. Using non-HE detergent
will likely result in longer cycle times and reduced rinsing
performance. It may also result in component failure and, over
time, buildup of mold or mildew. HE detergents are low-sudsing
and quick-dispersing to produce the right amount of suds for
the best performance. They hold soil in suspension so it is not
re-deposited onto clean clothes. Follow the manufacturer’s
instructions to determine the amount of detergent to use.
Use only High Efciency (HE) detergent.
