CONTROL PANEL AND FEATURES

ECO MONITOR

Your washer is specially designed to conserve energy  

and water. Each cycle, along with any selected options,  

will result in different energy usage. As you make your cycle 

and temperature selections, the Eco Monitor shows how 

well you are saving energy. Adjust the temperature and spin 

speed within that cycle to improve energy usage. Using the 

EcoBoost setting on a cycle can also be a one-touch way to 

improve your Eco Monitor rating on many cycles. 

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.

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 will 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.  

As you press Soil Level, the cycle time (minutes) will 

increase or decrease in the Estimated Time Remaining 

display and a different wash time will appear. 
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. Lower 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. Note 

that not all options can be used with all cycles, and some  

are preset to work with certain cycles. 

DEEP CLEAN/CLEAN BOOST 

This option provides enhanced cleaning action for tough 

stains. It will add additional agitation and soak time to  

the cycle. 

DELAY WASH

    

If you would like to set your washer to start at a preferred 

time, select the Delay Wash option. You can use this 

option to delay start of a wash cycle for up to 9 hours 

(depending on model). Press Delay Wash button once  

to delay 1 hour. If you want a longer delay period, press 

and hold the button until your desired delay time (in hours) 

shows in the Estimated Time Remaining display, up  

to 9H. Then press START/Pause/Unlock to set the delay.  

The countdown to the wash cycle will show in the  

display window.

ECOBOOST 

The EcoBoost option allows you to increase your energy 

savings on your wash cycles. When this option is used, 

the wash cycle will use slightly cooler wash water than  

the selected temperature. The indicated temperature will 

not change.  

PRESOAK 

Use this option to add an extra soak period to any cycle 

when washing heavily soiled garments. You can adjust the 

length of the soak period by changing the Soil Level.

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.
