Cycle Modifiers

About Modifier Buttons
Each cycle has default settings that are selected
automatically. You can also customize these
settings using the cycle modifier buttons.
• Repeatedly press the button for the desired
modifier until the indicator light for the desired
setting is lit.
• The washer automatically adjusts the water level
for the type and size of wash load for best results
and maximum efficiency.
• This is a high-efficiency washer, and the water
levels may be much lower than you expect. This
is normal, and cleaning/rinsing performance will
not be compromised.
NOTE
• The LED next to the setting lights up when the
setting is selected.
• To protect your garments, not every wash
temperature, spin speed, soil level, or option is
available with every cycle.
• A chime will sound twice and the LED will not
light if the desired setting is not allowed for the
selected cycle.
• Follow the fabric care labels on the garment for
best results.
Temp.
Make sure the wash temperature is suitable for
the type of load you are washing.
• Press the Temp. button repeatedly to select the
wash and rinse temperature combination for the
selected cycle.
• All rinses use unheated cold water.
• Cold rinses use less energy. The actual cold rinse
temperature depends on the temperature of the
cold water at the faucet.
• Your washer features a heating element to boost
the hot water temperature for Extra Hot
settings. This provides improved wash
performance at normal water heater settings.
Spin
Higher spin speeds extract more water from
clothes, reducing drying time and saving energy.
• Press the Spin button repeatedly until the
desired speed is selected.
• Some fabrics, such as delicates, require a slower
spin speed.
Soil
Adjusting the soil level setting will modify the cycle
times and/or wash actions.
• Press the Soil button repeatedly until the desired
soil level is selected.
• The Heavy soil setting may increase cycle times.
The Light soil setting may decrease cycle times.

Options and Extra Functions

Your washer includes several additional cycle
options to customize cycles to meet your individual
needs.
• Select the desired option after selecting the
desired cycle and settings.
NOTE
• The LED for the option will light when the option
is selected.
• To protect your garments, not every option is
available with every cycle.
• A chime will sound twice and the LED will not
light if the selected option is not allowed for the
selected cycle.
Steam
Adding this option to a wash cycle helps provide
superior cleaning performance. Using steam gives
fabrics the cleaning benefits of a very hot wash.
• Steam may not be clearly visible during steam
cycles. This is normal. Too much steam could
damage clothing.
• Do not use steam with delicate fabrics such as
wool and silk, or easily discolored fabrics.
WARNING
• Do not touch the door during steam cycles. The
door surface can become very hot and can cause
severe burns. Allow the door lock to release
before opening the door.
