CONTROL PANEL AND FEATURES
O
DEEP CLEAN OPTION
This option provides enhanced cleaning action for tough
stains. It will add additional agitation and soak time to the
cycle.
O TEMPERATURE
Temperature Control senses and maintains uniform water
temperatures by regulating incoming hot and cold water.
Select a wash temperature based on the type of fabric
and soils being washed. For best results and following the
garment label instructions, use the warmest wash water safe
for your fabric.
• Warm and hot water will be cooler than what your previous
washer provided.
• Even in a cool water wash, some warm water may be
added to the washer to maintain a minimum temperature.
WASH CYCLE KNOB
Use the Wash Cycle knob to select available cycles on your
washer. Turn the knob to select a cycle for your laundry load.
See "Cycle Guide" for detailed descriptions.
FABRIC SOFTENER ADDED OPTION
This option must be set to "Yes" if using fabric softener.
EXTRA RINSE OPTION
This option can be used to automatically add a second
rinse to most cycles.
START/PAUSE/UNLOCK BUTTON
Press to start the selected cycle; press again to pause the
cycle and unlock the lid. Press and hold 3 seconds to cancel
a cycle.
NOTE: if the washer is spinning, it may take several minutes
to unlock the lid. Press and hold 3 seconds to cancel a
cycle.
CYCLE STATUS LIGHTS
The Cycle Status Lights show the progress of a cycle.
At each stage of the process, you may notice sounds or
pauses that are different from traditional washers.
SENSING

When the START/Pause/Unlock button is pressed,
the washer will first perform a self-test on the lid lock
mechanism. You will hear a click, the basket will make a
slight turn, and the lid will unlock briefly before locking
again.
Once the lid has locked the second time, the washer will
use short, slow spins to estimate the load size. These
sensing spins may take 2 to 3 minutes before water is
added to the load and you may hear the hum of these
spins. If the sensing light is on, then washer is working
properly. You will hear the motor turn the basket in short
pulses to thoroughly wet the load. The washer will then
move the load briefly, pause to allow water to soak in to
the load, and resume adding water. This process may
repeat until the correct amount of water has been added
for the load. You may also hear water flowing through the
dispenser, adding detergent to the load.
NOTE: Avoid opening lid during sensing. The sensing
process will start over when the washer is restarted. The
sensing light may also come on during the Wash portion
of the cycle. This is normal.
WASH

You will hear the motor and washplate moving the load.
Unlike traditional washers, the load is not covered with
water. Low-water cleaning means concentrated cleaning.
Rather than diluting detergent as done in an agitator-style
washer, this washer delivers the detergent directly to the
soils. The motor sounds may change at different stages
in the cycle. The wash time is determined by the selected
soil level.
