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 SIGNAL
Use this option to adjust volume of the signal that
sounds at end of cycle. You may select Hi, Low,
or Off (no indicator lit). A louder signal is helpful in
removing items as soon as cycle is complete.
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.
LID LOCK INDICATOR
7
This light indicates that the lid is locked and
cannot be opened. If you need to open the lid,
press START/PAUSE. The lid will unlock once
the washer movement has stopped. This may
take several minutes if the load was spinning
at high speed. Press START/PAUSE again
to restart the cycle.
CYCLE STATUS LIGHT INDICATORS
8
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.
DELAY
This indicator will light if you use the + or - buttons
to delay the start of your cycle. To use this feature, see
"Select Cycle" in the "Starting Your Washer" section.
FILL
When the Start/Pause button is pressed, the washer will
add a small amount of water to the load, then pause for
a few seconds. The lid will then lock and the washer will
continue to fill.
WASH
You will hear the motor and washplate moving the load.
It is normal for some of the load to be above the water
line. 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. You may hear the
motor turning on briefly to move the basket while filling.
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 the selected cycle
and spin speed.
DONE
Once the cycle is complete, this light will come on.
Remove the load promptly for best results.
HEATING
This light may come on during the wash portion of the
cycle, as the washer slowly spins the load while adjusting
the water temperature.
ADD A GARMENT
You may place additional clothing in the wash when the
Add a Garment indicator is lit without sacrificing wash
performance. Press START/PAUSE once. The Lid Lock
light will turn off. Open the washer lid, add garments,
and close the lid. Press START/PAUSE to restart.
CLEAN WASHER REMINDER
The Clean Washer Reminder indicator lights after 30 wash
cycles without a clean washer cycle. See the "Washer
Care" section to run the clean washer cycle, or you can
press REMINDER RESET button to manually reset clean
washer cycle counter.
