Stain Removal Guide (on some models)
F
The Stain Removal Guide feature allows you to indicate what stains are on the garments in your load. An initial water fill
is performed at a temperature tailored to the stain type selected and to an amount which enables a concentrated cleaning
step. A stain scrubbing period, followed by an active soak, is conducted to effectively treat the stain. Then additional water
is added to the selected temperature and the wash phase is conducted for the cycle selected.
This feature can be applied to most wash cycles as described in the cycle guide.
To use Stain Removal Guide:
1. Select the desired wash cycle.
2. Press the Stain Removal Guide button.
Continue to press to select Tomato stain, Wine stain, Blood stain, Grass stain or Dirt stain. The indicator light will show
the selected stain.
To select a different stain, press the Stain Removal Guide button until desired stain to be removed is lit.
To turn off Stain Removal Guide, press until no indicator lights are illuminated.
NOTE: The Soil and Temperature levels will be changed to match the recommended default setting for each stain type.
Turning off Stain Removal Guide will return the settings to default.

• Recommended temperatures are optimal for stain removal performance; adjust temperature selection to suit load being
washed.
• Ensure stain is completely removed after wash cycle and before placing in dryer; very tough stains may require a second
treatment.
Settings
G
Individual settings for agitation (Soil), water temperature (Temp), and spin (Spin) can be set from the minimum (lowest in
column) to maximum (highest in column). In general, the higher up the column, the more washer energy will be used.
NOTE: Longer Spin times typically reduce dryer time/energy usage (i.e. reduces total energy when using both a washer and
a dryer).
