STEAM CYCLES AND OPTIONS (Model 4156*)
Your washing machine features several additional cycle
options that customize cycles to meet your individual
needs.
1
Turn ON the washer and turn the cycle selector
knob to select the desired cycle.
2
Use the cycle modifier buttons to adjust the settings
for that cycle.
3
Press the cycle option button(s) for the option(s) you
would like to add. The button will light when that
option is selected. For secondary functions, press
and hold the button for three seconds. The LED will
blink when the secondary option is selected. Both
options cannot be selected together.
4
If the selected option is not allowed for the selected
cycle, the chime will sound twice to alert you and
the LED will not illuminate.
5
Press the START/PAUSE button to start the cycle. After a
brief delay, the door will lock and the cycle will begin.
NOTE: To protect your garments, not every option is
available with every cycle.
NOTE: If the START/PAUSE button is not pressed within 60
minutes, the control will shut off and the settings will be lost.
STEAM TREAT
Select the STEAM TREAT button to add
steam to the selected cycle for added
cleaning power.
Adding steam to cycles helps provide
improved cleaning performance. By creating steam,
fabrics get the benefit of a deep clean. The steam option
is not available on all cycles.
Adding Steam to a Cycle
1
Turn ON the washer and turn the cycle selector
knob to select a cycle that allows the steam option.
Refer to the Cycle Guide to see which cycles allow
steam.
2
Press the STEAM TREAT button. The washer will
automatically adjust the cycle settings.
3
Set any other desired options.
4
Press the START/PAUSE button to start the cycle.
NOTE:
The door may be very warm during steam cycles. This is
normal.
Do not attempt to override the door lock mechanism or
reach into the washer during a steam cycle. Steam can
cause severe burns.
IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT STEAM CYCLES:
• Steam may not be visible during the steam cycles. This
is normal.
• Do not use steam with delicate fabrics such as wool,
silk, or easily discolored fabrics.
ACCELA WASH
The Accela Wash option uses a twin water-
spray and detergent injection which
reduces cycle time while maintaining wash
performance when added to a cycle.
PRE WASH
Select this option to add a 15-minute
prewash, rinse and spin cycle to the chosen
cycle. This is especially useful for heavily
soiled items.
EXTRA RINSE
This option will add an extra rinse to the
selected cycle. Use this option to help
ensure the removal of detergent or bleach
residue from fabrics.
STAY FRESH
This feature helps keep wrinkles from setting
in clothes and helps keep them fresh if they
are not removed from the washer as soon as
the cycle is complete. Press the STAY FRESH
button to tumble the clothes intermittently and circulate
fresh air through the drum for up to 19 hours. Press the
POWER button or the START/PAUSE button to remove
clothes at any time.
