HOW TO USE

TIME AND STATUS DISPLAY

The time and status display shows the estimated time remaining and cycle progress.

ESTIMATED TIME REMAINING

When a cycle is selected, the default time for that 

cycle is displayed. This time will change as modifiers 

or options are selected. Once the START/PAUSE 

button is pressed, the washer will measure the size 

of the load. The estimated time may change once 

the load size has been measured. 

NOTE:

 

The time shown is only an estimate. This time 

is based on normal operating conditions. Several ex-

ternal factors (load size, room temperature, incoming 

water temperature, etc.) can affect the actual time.

CYCLE STATUS INDICATOR

These LEDs will illuminate when a cycle is selected 

to indicate which stages will run. When a cycle is 

running, the LED will blink for the active stage. Once 

a stage is complete, the LED will turn off. If a cycle is 

paused, the active LED will stop blinking.
