CONTROL PANEL AND FEATURES

Not all features and cycles are available on all models.

POWER/CANCEL

Touch to turn the washer on and off. Touch to stop/cancel  

a cycle at any time. 

WASH CYCLE KNOB

Use your Wash Cycle knob to select available cycles on your 

washer. Turn the knob to select a cycle for your laundry load. 

See “Cycle Guide” for detailed descriptions of cycles.

START

Touch and hold until the light above START comes on to start 

a cycle, or touch once while a cycle is in process to pause it. 

If you want to add a garment, you can touch START when the 

“Add a Garment” LED is on.

LED DISPLAY AND SETTINGS

When you select a cycle, its default settings will light up and the 

Estimated Cycle Time will be displayed. Factors such as load 

size, wash temperature, and water pressure may affect the time 

shown in the display during the cycle. Tightly packing garments, 

unbalanced loads, or excessive suds may cause the washer to 

adjust the cycle time, as well. 
Touch the desired option along the right of the display to adjust 

settings. See “Cycle Guide” for available settings on each cycle. 

Not all settings are available with all cycles.

Temperature 

The recommended wash temperature is preset for each cycle. 

You may also select a wash temperature based on the type 

of fabric and soils being washed. For best results, follow the 

garment label instructions. All wash temperatures feature a 

cold rinse.

Soil Level

The Soil Level setting (wash time) is preset for each wash cycle. 

For most loads, use this preset soil level. When you change 

the soil setting, the cycle time will increase or decrease in the 

Estimated Cycle Time display. 
For heavily soiled and sturdy fabrics, use the Soil Level setting 

to select more wash time. For lightly soiled and delicate 

fabrics, use the Soil Level setting to select less wash time. 

Lower soil level settings will help reduce tangling and wrinkling.

 The control panel features a sensitive surface that responds  

to a light touch of your finger. To ensure your selections are registered, 

touch the control panel with your finger tip, not your fingernail. When 

selecting a setting or option, simply touch its name.

Spin Speed

This washer automatically selects the spin speed based on the 

cycle selected. Some preset speeds can be changed. 

n

 

  Higher spin speeds mean shorter dry times, but may  

increase wrinkling in your load. 

n

 

  Lower spin speeds reduce wrinkling, but will leave  

your load more damp.

DELAY START

Use 

+

 and 

 to delay the start of the wash cycle by up to  

12 hours. To turn off Delay Start, use 

+

 and 

 to set the delay 

time to “0,” or touch POWER/CANCEL.

CYCLE STATUS LIGHTS

For details, see “Cycle Status Lights”.

OPTIONS

Touch to activate additional wash options or additional features on 

the washer. Not all options are available on all models.  

Steam for Stains 

The Steam for Stains option adds additional soak and  

wash time to many cycles to help remove tough stains, as well 

as a steam boost for added cleaning power. An integrated 

heater helps to maintain optimal wash temperatures. See 

the “Cycle Guide” for cycles that allow the Steam for Stains 

option.

Extra Rinse 

Activate this option to add an extra rinse to most cycles.

NOTE: 

Some cycles include this feature as a default.  

See “Cycle Guide” for details.
