As water passes through the fabric, its natural 
cleansing action washes away dirt without 
damaging or tangling the fabric.

Infusor Wash

Following the centrifusion wash cycle, the basket 
and infusor unlock and the wash basket remains 
stationary. The infusor rotates to evenly distribute 
the wash load while continuing to clean. The 
redistribution of fabrics helps ensure that the lint 
and dirt do not become trapped.

Jet Spray Rinse

Jet Spray is used during the rinse cycles in order to 
use less water. Water is sprayed over the clothes as 
the basket rotates.

Jet Spray is the default rinse type unless either 

FABRIC SOFTENER

 or 

EXTRA RINSE

 cycle additions 

are selected.   

After several seconds of clockwise spinning, the 
basket slows down and stops. The wash water pools 
back into the wash basket. The wash basket starts 
spinning in the counterclockwise direction creating 
the same cleaning action. The washer will change 
direction (up to 4 times) before going to the next 
cycle.

Cycle Cancellation

If the user cancels a cycle by pressing the 

POWER

 

pad, after 4 minutes the pump will turn on and 
pump the water out of the tub. The control does not 
illuminate and the tub does not spin. The pump is 
operated until the tub is empty. 

If the customer pauses a cycle for an extended 
amount of time, after 2 hours have elapsed, the 
machine will pump the water out of the tub and 
shut off.
