CONNECTIVITY
Features
Wi-Fi connectivity allows your Smart Washer/Dryer to connect to the Internet and interact with the Whirlpool™ app from your
smartphone or mobile device. This connection opens up several Smart options to you: options intended to save you valuable time
and energy.
SMART FEATURES
Smart Features help make your everyday more efficient by letting
you remotely monitor, manage, and maintain your washer/dryer.
Remote Start & Pause
What it does:
Allows you to send remote control of your washer/
dryer to your smartphone or mobile device via the Whirlpool
®
app.
What it does for you:
Lets you manage when to start your
wash or dry cycle and when your laundry gets done. Have freshly
washed and/or dried laundry when you’re ready for it – not just
when you’re home to wait.
Cycle Progress
What it does:
Gives you an up-to-the-minute look at your wash
or dry cycle progress and remaining cycle time from anywhere.
What it does for you:
Relieves you of having to visit the laundry
room to check on the status of your wash or dry cycle.
Clothes Clean Notification (Opt-In)
What it does:
Your washer/dryer will send you a push
notification when its current cycle is complete.
What it does for you:
Alerts you precisely when the laundry
is done, so you can get the next load started and move on to
other things.
If you can’t unload the washer/dryer right away, or are away
from home when a cycle finishes, you can remotely activate
Tumble Fresh™ or Wrinkle Shield™ cycles to help your clothes
stay fresh until you’re able to get to them.
Specialty Cycles & My Cycle
What it does:
Allows you to browse additional wash cycles
available in the Whirlpool
®
app and download a cycle to the
washer with the Download & Go™ option. You can also create
and save your own customized cycles.
What it does for you:
Takes the guesswork out of selecting the
optimal washer settings for garments and household items that
require specialized care.
Quiet Mode
What it does:
Lets you turn off the tones and beeps coming
from your washer.
What it does for you:
Allows you to do laundry without
disturbing anyone else in the household.
Issue Alerts (Opt-In)
What it does:
Sends you a push notification if something has
gone wrong.
What it does for you:
Gives you a heads-up, and provides
guidance to fix simple issues through videos and step-by-step
instructions.
If the issue is more complex, you can e-mail or call our service
center directly from the Whirlpool
®
app.
SMART ABOUT ENERGY
Your Smart Washer/Dryer can monitor and respond to changing
energy demand levels on the power grid.
Smart Delay (Opt-In)
What it does:
When energy demand is high, it gives you
the option to delay starting a wash or dry cycle until demand
levels are lower.
What it does for you:
You can feel good about giving a little
back to the environment. Some consumers may even see a lower
energy bill.
If you need to begin a wash or dry cycle immediately, you can
override a Smart Delay. The washer/dryer will return to energy
monitoring on the next cycle.
GET STARTED
Refer to the Quick Connect packet that came with your washer,
or see the “Connectivity Setup” section on pages
47
and
48
of
this Use & Care Guide and Installation Instructions and follow the
instructions to get connected.

and features.
) is illuminated. Check the Whirlpool® app for additional washer/dryer features,
including Delay Start.
Set a Remote Start
Remote Start mode allows the consumer to start their washer/
dryer remotely from the Whirlpool® app.
After preparing your laundry load and selecting your cycle
settings, touch and hold the DOWNLOAD & GO button for
3 seconds. The Remote Start status indicator ( ) and the
indicator above the Start/Pause button will begin blinking.
Touch and hold START/PAUSE to set the mode. The indicator
above Start/Pause will go out, and the Remote Start indicator
will be solidly lit.
When a Remote Start command is received from the app, the
washer/dryer will start the cycle, causing the indicator above
Start/Pause to be lit (indicating running state). The Remote
Start indicator will remain lit.
HELPFUL TIP:
Make sure that the washer/dryer remains closed
and the cycle is not adjusted until the cycle is started. Any
interaction with the washer/dryer itself after a Remote Start
has been set will cancel the Remote Start. If the washer/dryer
needs to be paused to add garments, the Remote Start will
need to be reinitiated.
NOTE:
If no WiFi connection is available, the Remote Start will
not be set. The WiFi indicator (

) will blink for 2 seconds,
then go out. If the washer/dryer is WiFi connected but the
Whirlpool® app service is temporarily unavailable, Remote
Start can be set.
IMPORTANT:
When using Remote Start to delay a cycle, use
only liquid HE detergent in the detergent dispenser and liquid
Oxi or liquid color-safe bleach in the TimedOxi dispenser.
Powdered detergents and laundry boosters may absorb
moisture from a previous cycle and clump before the wash
cycle begins.
Download a Specialty Cycle or
My Cycle
The Download & Go™ option lets the consumer select and
send a Specialty Cycle or My Cycle from the Whirlpool® app
directly to their washer/dryer. The indicator above Download
& Go will illuminate. Touch DOWNLOAD & GO to select the
cycle. The Time/Status display will show the estimated cycle
time. Touch and hold the START/PAUSE button for 3 seconds to
start the wash cycle, or continue to set the washer for Remote
Start.
HELPFUL TIP:
The cycle will be remembered for future use
until a different cycle is downloaded to the washer/dryer.
NOTE:
If the Download & Go button is touched without a cycle
ready for selection (with the indicator not lit), you will hear an
“Invalid Keypress” sound (if key activation sounds are turned
on).
