CONTROL PANEL AND FEATURES
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.
CYCLE OPTIONS
When you select a cycle, its default settings will light up.
Not all cycles and options are available on all models.
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.
• Warm and hot water may 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.
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. Lighter
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.
You may also add or remove options for each cycle. Not all
options can be used with all cycles, and some are preset to
work with certain cycles.
EXTRA RINSE
This option can be used to automatically add a second rinse
to most cycles.
FABRIC SOFTENER
This option must be selected if using fabric softener
during a cycle. It ensures that fabric softener is added
at the correct time in the rinse for even distribution.

CYCLE STATUS LIGHTS INDICATOR
The Cycle Status Lights show the progress of a cycle.
At each stage of the process, you may notice sounds or
pauses that are different from traditional washers.
SENSING
When the START/Pause/Unlock button is pressed,
the washer will first perform a self-test on the lid lock
mechanism. You will hear a click, the basket will make a
slight turn, then lid will unlock briefly before locking again.
Once the lid has locked the second time, the washer
will slowly spin the dry load to estimate the load size and
amount of water needed, and begin adding water. The
washer will then move the load briefly, pause to allow
water to soak into the load, and resume adding water. This
process may repeat until the correct amount of water has
been added for the load. You may also hear water flowing
through the dispenser, adding detergent to the load.
NOTE: The sensing light may also come on during the
Wash portion of the cycle. This is normal.
WASH
You will hear the washplate moving the load. Unlike
traditional washers, the load is not covered with water.
Low-water cleaning means concentrated cleaning. Rather
than diluting detergent as done in an agitator-style washer,
this washer delivers the detergent directly to the soils. The
motor sounds may change at different stages in the cycle.
The wash time is determined by the selected soil level.
RINSE
You will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the
washer rinses and moves the load. Fabric softener will
be added if the Fabric Softener option was selected.
Some cycles use spray rinsing.
SPIN
The washer spins the load at increasing speeds for proper
water removal, based on selected cycle and spin speed.
DONE
Once the cycle is complete, this light will come on.
Remove the load promptly for best results.
