Cycle Options - Continued
Deep Fill
Select the Deep Fill feature for loads where extra water is needed.
Press the Deep Fill button once before starting the cycle to add an incremental amount of water to the wash load. Holding the Deep Fill
button for 3 seconds will provide the deepest fill level possible; this will increase cycle time due to the additional time it takes to fill the
washer.
To cancel the option if desired, press the Deep Fill button again.
NOTE: The Deep Fill button can also be pressed after the washer has completed filling and is in the wash phase if additional water is
desired. To stop the extra fill, press the Deep Fill button again and the water will stop.
Auto Soak
This option begins with a brief agitation, soaks for a specified period of time, then moves through the rest of the cycle automatically.
2nd Rinse
When you use extra detergent or bleach to clean heavily soiled clothes, use the 2nd Rinse option to better remove additional residues.
Extra Spin
Select to provide additional spin time, increasing energy efficiency through reducing drying times.
2nd Rinse + Extra Spin
Provides both a second rinse and an extra spin.
Deep Rinse
Set this option to provide a deep rinse or when using fabric softener. This option may change other settings (e.g. Spin may go to a higher
setting) to maximize performance.
NOTE: Do not use fabric softener dispensing balls with this washer. They do not work correctly in high efficiency washers.

Spin LED After the wash cycle, the clothing wasn’t evenly distributed enough to spin out the water. Redistribute the
clothes more evenly in the washer and then run a Drain & Spin cycle.
Rinse LED (Water
took too long to
Pump Out)
Resume cycle or enter Drain & Spin . If water pumps out, then the clog has likely cleared. If water remains in
the washer, check for clogged or pinched drain hose. This situation could be more likely to appear, over time, if
the external drain hose has been extended or restricted.
Fill LED (Water not
entering washer)
Check your house water supply. Did you forget to turn on one or both supply valves after installation or
coming back from vacation? As soon as the message starts to scroll, the washer will initiate a 3 minute lock-
out period. The washer controls won’t respond/change during this time. After the 3 minutes, you can begin
your cycle again. If you try to bypass the lock-out period by unplugging the washer, the 3 minute timer will
start over again.
Two LED lights

If your machine has stopped itself before the cycle completed. The two furthest right LED lights will flash. This
indicates that an error has occurred. Try to run a Drain & Spin cycle to see if it will clear. If it does not clear, call
