Control Panel and Features
ECO MONITOR
Your washer is specially designed to conserve energy
and water. Each cycle, along with any selected options,
will result in different energy usage. As you make your cycle
and temperature selections, the Eco Monitor shows how
well you are saving energy. Adjust the temperature and spin
speed within that cycle to improve energy usage. Using the
EcoBoost
™
setting on a cycle can also be a one-touch way
to improve your Eco Monitor rating on many cycles.
POWER
Press to turn the washer on and off, or to cancel a cycle.
WASH CYCLE KNOB
Use the 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/PAUSE/UNLOCK
Press to start the selected cycle; press again to pause the
cycle and unlock the lid. Press and hold 3 sec to cancel a
cycle.
NOTE: If the washer is spinning, it may take several minutes
to unlock the lid.
CYCLE SETTINGS
When you select a cycle, its default settings will light up.
TEMP
Temperature Control senses and maintains uniform
water temperatures by regulating incoming hot and
cold water.
Select a wash temperature based on the type of fabric
and soils being washed. For best results and following
the garment label instructions, use the warmest wash
water safe for your fabric.
• On some models and cycles, warm and hot water will
be cooler than what your previous washer provided.
• Even in a Cool water wash, some warm water may
be added to the washer to maintain a minimum
temperature.
SOIL LEVEL
Soil Level (wash time) is preset for each wash cycle.
As you press Soil Level, the cycle time (minutes) will
increase or decrease in the Estimated Time Remaining
display and a different wash time will appear.
For most loads, use the soil level that is preset with the
cycle you have chosen. For heavily soiled and sturdy
fabrics, press Soil Level to select more wash time, if
needed. For lightly soiled and delicate fabrics, press Soil
Level to select less wash time, if needed. Lower soil level
setting will help reduce tangling and wrinkling.

SPIN SPEED
This washer automatically selects the spin speed
based on the cycle selected. The preset speeds can be
changed. Not all spin speeds are available with all cycles.
• Faster spin speeds mean shorter dry times, but may
increase wrinkling in your load.
• Slower spin speeds mean less wrinkling, but will leave
your load more damp.
EST TIME REMAINING DISPLAY
The Estimated Time Remaining display shows the time
required for the cycle to complete. Factors such as load size
and water pressure may affect the time shown in the display.
Overloading, unbalanced loads, or excessive suds may
cause the washer to adjust the cycle time, as well.
CYCLE OPTIONS
DEEP CLEAN
This option provides enhanced cleaning action for tough
stains. It will add additional agitation and soak time to
the cycle.
DELAY WASH
If you would like to set your washer to start at a preferred
time, select the Delay Wash option. You can use this
option to delay start of a wash cycle for up to 9 hours
(depending on model). Press Delay Wash button once
to delay 1 hour. If you want a longer delay period, press
and hold the button until your desired delay time (in hours)
shows in the Estimated Time Remaining display, up
to 9H. Then press START/Pause/Unlock to set the delay.
The countdown to the wash cycle will show in the
display window.
PRESOAK
Use this option to add an extra soak period to any cycle
when washing heavily soiled garments. You can adjust
the length of the soak period by changing the Soil Level.
EXTRA RINSE
This option can be used to automatically add a second
rinse to most cycles.
ECOBOOST
™
The EcoBoost
™
option allows you to increase your energy
savings on your wash cycles. When this option is used,
the wash cycle will use slightly cooler wash water than
the selected temperature. The indicated temperature will
not change.
