Settings
Individual settings for soil level (Level), water temperature (Temp) and spin speed (Spin)
can be set from the minimum to maximum. In general, the higher up the column, the more
energy will be used.
Soil
Changing the soil level increases or decreases the wash time to remove different amounts
of soil. To change the Soil level, press the Soil level pad until the desired setting has been
reached. Choose between Extra Light, Light, Normal, Heavy or Extra Heavy soil levels on
most cycles.
Temp
Adjust to select the proper water temperature for the wash cycle. The AutoSoak and
PreWash rinse water is always cold to help reduce energy usage and reduce setting of
stains and wrinkles. Follow the fabric manufacturer’s care label when selecting the wash
temperature. To change the wash temperature, press the Temp pad until the desired
setting has been reached. Choose between Tap Cold, Cold, Warm, Hot or Extra Hot on
most cycles. By design, to protect fabrics, not all wash temperatures are available for
certain wash cycles. Extra Hot temperatures are enabled by the internal heater on models
equipped with Steam capabilities.
NOTE:
The first 10 seconds of the wash fill is always cold. This feature assists in
conditioning the fabric and preventing stains from setting on garments.
Spin
Adjusting the Spin speed changes the final spin speed of the cycles. Always follow the
garment manufacturer’s care label when changing the Spin speed. To change the Spin
speed, press the Spin speed pad until the desired setting has been reached. Choose
between No Spin, Low, Medium, High or Max. Higher spin speeds are not available on
certain cycles, such as DELICATES and ACTIVE WEAR. Higher spin speeds remove more
water from the clothes and will help reduce dry time, but may also increase the possibility of
setting wrinkles on some fabrics.
NOTE:
This washer features a dBT™ (Dynamic Balancing Technology) system. This
patented onboard sensing technology enables real-time balancing of the spin cycle for each
load, saving time and providing a quiet wash. This should lead to more consistent wash
times and an overall reduction in noise and vibration. If the washer should experience
any excessive noise, vibration or shaking, simply Pause the washer, open the door, and
manually redistribute the load before restarting the cycle.
