eMonitor
(on some models)
The eMonitor lights display the relative
energy use of your selected cycle and
options. They are provided as an energy
guide and range from Good (1 light) to
Better (5 lights). Some special cycles will
not provide a display.
22
Display
Displays the approximate time
remaining until the end of the cycle.
NOTE: The cycle time is affected by how
long it takes the washer to fill. This depends
on the water pressure in your home. The
“smart” timer “learns” the amount of time
it takes to fill your washer and adjusts the
total time accordingly.
Cycle status is also displayed and certain
features such as Delay Wash or Steam are
shown indicating they have been selected.
If an out-of-balance condition is
detected by the washer, the Spin light
will blink during the remaining portion of
the cycle and will stay illuminated for a
short time after cycle completion. When
this occurs, the washer is taking actions
to correct the out-of-balance condition
and complete the cycle normally. In
some cases, the washer may not be
able to balance the load and spin up to
full speed. If you notice the load is more
wet than usual at the end of the cycle,
redistribute the load evenly in the wash
tub and run a Drain + Spin cycle.
In addition, the display will, “scroll” the
washer status:
• dOOr The washer door is open,
causing the machine to be in PAUSE
mode until the door is properly closed.
• LOAd SenSE Sensing load size prior to
fill (normal operation). Cycles that do
not perform LOAD SENSE are Active

• PAUSE Cycle paused because the
Start/Pause or Add Garment button
was pressed and the washer was set
to Pause . Press Start button again to
restart the cycle.
• End End of current cycle.
• OFF Washer is shutting down. The
washer may need to drain the water
prior to unlocking the door and shutting
down.
