HOW TO USE
CYCLE MODIFIER BUTTONS
ENGLISH
A
WASH/RINSE
Selects the wash and rinse temperature combination for
the selected cycle. Press the WASH/RINSE button until
the indicator light for the desired setting is lit.
• Your washer features a heating element to boost the hot
water temperature for Extra Hot settings.
This provides improved wash performance at normal
water heater settings.
• Select the water temperature suitable for the type of load
you are washing. Follow the garment fabric care labels
for best results.
• Warm rinses are regulated at approximately 86°F (30°C).
• Warm rinses leave the clothes drier than cold rinses, but
will result in increased energy consumption and greater
wrinkling of clothes.
• Cold rinses use less energy. The actual rinse
temperature depends on the temperature of the cold
water at the faucet.
B
SPIN SPEED
This extracts more water from clothes, reducing drying
time and saving energy.
Press the SPIN SPEED button until the indicator light for
the desired setting is lit. Some fabrics, such as delicates,
require a slower spin speed.
The Drain & Spin cycle:
1.
Press the POWER button to turn ON the washer.
2. Press the SPIN SPEED button to select the desired
spin speed. For drain only, select the NO SPIN option.
3. Press the START/PAUSE button. The water will be
drained and the clothes will be tumbled before the
spin routine begins.
C
SOIL LEVEL
Adjusts the selected cycle to allow more time for heavily
soiled clothes or less time for lightly soiled clothes.
Press the SOIL LEVEL button until the indicator light for
the desired setting is lit.
D
CHIME
Press repeatedly to adjust the volume of the chime.
You may turn the end-of-cycle chime and keypad tones
ON or OFF with the CHIME button.
Each cycle has default settings that are selected
automatically. You may also customize these settings using
the cycle modifier buttons. Press the button for the desired
modifier until the indicator light for the desired value is lit.
The washer automatically adjusts the water level for the type
and size of wash load for best results and maximum
efficiency. Due to the high-efficiency nature of this product,
water levels may be much lower than expected. This is
normal operation and cleaning/rinsing performance will not
be compromised. NOTE: To protect your garments, not every wash/rinse
temperature, spin speed, soil level, or option is available with
every cycle. A chime will sound and the LED will not light if a
selection is not allowed. See the Cycle Guide on page 14 for
details.
