Stain Treat
The
Stain Treat
option adds a special 10 minute soak/
pretreat agitation before the main wash. It
fi
lls initially
with detergent and cold water to prevent protein stains
from setting, then the internal heater is activated to heat
the wash water to remove non-protein based stains. Can
be used with
Prewash
for the toughest stains.
Add Steam
Select this option to add approximately 20 minutes of
tumbling in steam during the wash cycle. It is recom-
mended for heavily soiled loads to help enhance the
release of tough stains from fabrics after initial agitation.
Energy Saver
The
Energy Saver
option reduces the warm water tem-
perature a few degrees to save energy.
Operating Instructions
Pre Wash
Select this option to add a short initial wash period to a
cycle. Heavily soiled and stained loads will prewash for
approximately 5 minutes. The water will drain and the
load will automatically advance to the regular wash cycle.
See step 5 in “
Operating Your Washer
” section in this
guide for details on adding detergent to the dispenser.
Extra Rinse
Use this option when additional rinsing is desired to
remove excess dirt and detergent. It is recommended for
heavily soiled loads or if household members have sensi-
tive skin.
Extra Spin
Use this option to add minutes to the
fi
nal spin at the
selected
Spin Speed

decrease drying time and save energy.
