Gentle Wash
Cycles 8, 16, and 24 use a gentle wash
agitation in place of the standard wash
agitation. This agitation repeats for the
programmed segment time duration in the
prewash, wash, and fill segments.
The gentle wash agitation sequence:
• 3 seconds counterclockwise at wash speed
• A 12-second pause
• 3 seconds clockwise at wash speed
• A 12-second pause
Heat
If the segment contains a heat step, the
machine begins heating after the water has
reached the programmed level.
Note: If the water does not reach the
programmed temperature in 30 minutes, the
computer progresses to the wash step.
Drain
At the conclusion of a spin, the drain valve
opens, and the cylinder turns clockwise
(forward) at wash speed.
Note: The machine should drain in
30 seconds. If the machine fails to drain,
contact a qualified service technician.
When the water level falls below the low level,
there is a 15-second delay, during which the
computer continues to monitor water level. If a
F232087
water level input is sensed, the computer waits
until both high and low level inputs indicate
the machine is empty. Assuming the computer
detects no water level during the 15-second
period, the drain sequence concludes.
Spin
After the drain sequence ends, the speed of
the cylinder increases to the extract speed if the
programmed spin time is not zero. The
displayed time resumes counting down at
one-second intervals.
After the programmed spin time has elapsed,
the computer moves on to the fill step in the
next segment of the cycle. If the spin is at the
end of the cycle, the computer begins the
stop routine.
