Options
See the "Laundry Guide" for an overview of possible options
for each Wash Cycle selection.
You can select more than one option for a cycle. Some
options cannot be added to some cycles.
If an option is available with a selected cycle, the light for that
option will glow when selected.
If an option is unavailable with a selected cycle, there will be a
short tone, and the light for that option will not glow when
selected.
Extra Rinse
An extra rinse can be used to ensure the removal of detergent or
bleach residue from garments. This option provides an addtional
rinse with the same water temperature as the first rinse.
Rinse Hold
Use this option to avoid wrinkling of your laundry when a load
cannot be removed from the washer immediately. The wash cycle
is paused before the final drain and spin phase so that the
laundry stays in the rinse water until the cycle is continued. This
provides optimal wrinkle care of your wet laundry. The door stays
locked during the Rinse Hold cycle and the indicator light is
flashing. Press RINSE HOLD to finish the cycle and unload the
washer.
Preset cycle settings of Water Temperature, Wash/Rinse, and
Spin Speed can be changed. You can change a modifier after
starting a cycle anytime before the selected modifier begins. Not
all modifiers are available with all cycles and options.

Wash/Rinse Temp
Select a water temperature based on the type of load you are
washing. Use the warmest water safe for fabrics. Follow garment
label instructions.
Warm rinses leave the loads dryer than cold rinses. Warm rinses
increase wrinkling. In cold climates, a warm rinse makes the load
more comfortable to handle. Cold rinses save energy.
