Soil
Changing the Soil level increases or
decreases the wash time to remove
different amounts of soil.
To change the Soil level, press the Soil
level button until you have reached the
desired setting. You can choose between
Extra Light, Light, Normal, Heavy or Extra
Heavy soil levels.
Temp
Adjust to select the proper water
temperature for the wash cycle. The
PreSoak and PreWash rinse water is
always cold to help reduce energy usage
and reduce setting of stains and wrinkles.
Follow the fabric manufacturer’s
care label when selecting the wash
temperature.
To change the wash temperature, press
the wash Temp button until you have
reached the desired setting. You can
choose between Tap Cold, Cold, Warm,
Hot or Extra Hot. By design, to protect
fabrics, not all wash temperatures are
available for certain wash cycles.
NOTE: The first 10 seconds of the wash
fill is always cold. This feature assists in
conditioning the fabric and preventing
stains from setting on garments.
Spin
Changing the Spin speed changes the
final spin speed of the cycles. Always
follow the garment manufacturer’s care
label when changing the Spin speed.
To change the Spin speed, press the Spin
speed button until you have reached the
desired setting. You can choose between
No Spin, Low, Medium, High or Extra High
Spin. Higher spin speeds are not available
on certain cycles, such as Delicates .
Higher spin speeds remove more water
from the clothes and will help reduce dry
time, but may also increase the possibility
of setting wrinkles on some fabrics.

Rinse
Changing Rinse will change the number
of rinses the cycle will use. To change the
rinse option, press Rinse until you have
reached the desired setting. On some
models you can choose between Normal,
Extra, Max (a third rinse), and no rinse. In
order to select no rinse, press the Rinse
button until no lights are lit in the rinse
window.
On models with Rinse+Spin cycle, a
drain and spin cycle can be achieved by
pressing the Rinse or Ext Rinse button
until the LED is no longer illuminated.
On models with
Drain+Spin cycle, a
rinse and spin cycle can be achieved by
selecting Ext Rinse option.
NOTE: Some models have only
an Extra Rinse option. This
option allows for an extra rinse during a
cycle to remove excess dirt and
detergent from soiled loads. Press the
Ext Rinse button to select.
Start/Pause
Press to start a wash cycle. If the washer
is running, pressing it once will pause the
washer and unlock the door.
It will take a few seconds for the door to
unlock after pressing Pause . Press again
to restart the wash cycle.
NOTE: If the washer is paused and the
cycle is not restarted within 15 minutes,
the current wash cycle will be cancelled.
NOTE: In some cycles the washer will
drain first, then unlock the door when it is
paused.
NOTE: The washer performs automatic
system checks after pressing the Start
button. Water will flow in 45 seconds
or less. You may hear the door lock and
unlock before water flows; this is normal.
