As with any new product, you will hear sounds that you are not
accustomed
to. You may hear various sounds when the door is
locked and unlocked, and during the washing, rinsing, and
spinning process. Between changes in wash actions, there will
be momentary pauses. You will hear water spraying and
splashing during the wash and rinse cycles. These new sounds
and pauses are part of normal washer operation.
You can customize your wash by adding options to your cycle
selections. You can add or change an option after starting a cycle
anytime before the selected option begins. Not all options are
available with all cycles. Available options will glow amber.
Current selections will glow green. If an option is unavailable with
a selected cycle, the light will not illuminate.

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; for example,
Prewash cannot be added to the Quick Wash cycle.
If an option is unavailable with a selected cycle, there will be
3 short tones, and the light for that option will not glow when
selected.
Delay Wash
Use this to begin the wash cycle later.
Select DELAY WASH until the desired time (in hours) shows in
the Estimated Time Remaining display.
Select START. The countdown
to the wash cycle will show in
the display window.
When delaying a cycle, use only powdered detergents in the
main wash compartment
since liquid detergents may seep
out of the compartment
during Delay Wash, before the wash
cycle begins.
Prewash
Use this option for heavily soiled loads that need pretreatment.
This option adds a 15-minute prewash and drain to the main
wash cycle.
NOTES:
Add detergent to the Prewash and Main Wash
compartments
of the Dispenser Drawer.
When using Prewash, use only powdered detergents in the
main wash compartment
since liquid detergents may seep
out of the compartment
during Delay Wash, before the wash
cycle begins.
NOTE: The Prewash and Presoak options cannot be selected in
the same cycle.
Presoak
Use the Presoak option for loads of heavily soiled cotton, linen,
polyester or nylon with set-in stains. During Presoak, water will
be added to the drum and the laundry will be equally distributed
by a short tumbling phase. Laundry will then be soaked by
phases without drum movement. After soaking, the washer
drains without spinning.
Add detergent to both the Prewash and Main Wash
compartments
of the Dispenser Drawer.
Use powdered detergent for the main wash cycle because
liquid detergent will seep into the washer during Soak.
For cycles with Hot Wash Temperatures, the Presoak
temperature is set to Warm. Otherwise the Presoak
temperature is the same as the Wash Temperature.
The Presoak and Prewash options cannot be selected in the
same cycle.
Extra Rinse
An extra rinse can be used to aid in the removal of detergent or
bleach residue from garments. This option provides an additional
rinse with the same water temperature as the first rinse.
Cycle Signal
This signal is helpful when you are removing items from the
washer as soon as it stops. Press CYCLE SIGNAL to select Loud,
Soft or Off.
Button Sound
Button sounds are used to notify you of what has been selected
or to let you know when something is not available. Press
BUTTON SOUND to select Loud, Soft or Off.
