After selecting the desired cycle and settings, press
the cycle option button(s) for the option(s) you would
like to add. The button will light when that option is
selected. If the selected option is not allowed for the
selected cycle, the chime will sound twice to alert you
and the LED will not illuminate.

• To protect your garments, not every option is avaiP
able with every cycle.
• If the START/PAUSE button is not pressed within
five minutes to start the cycle, the control will shut
off and all settings will be lost.

TM
This option saves energy by using cooler water while
increasing the wash and rinse times to maintain wash
performance.
NOTE:
• Wash time will increase up to 80 minutes with the

cycle has finished. Press and hold the COLD WASH
TM

NAL. When no signal is heard, the signal is off. The

CHILD LOCK
Use this option to disable the controls. The washer
can only be locked during a cycle. This feature can
prevent children from changing cycles or operating the
machine. Once the Child Lock is set, it must be deac-
tivated before any controls, except the power button,
can be used. Once the washer has shut off, the power
button will allow the machine to be turned ON, but
the controls will still be locked. When the controls are
locked, CL will display alternately with the estimated
time remaining. Press and hold the SOIL LEVEL button
for five seconds to activate or deactivate Child Lock.
NOTE: Once the controls are locked, they must be
manually unlocked to restore operation.

Laundry may ONLY be added to the load at the
proper time in the wash cycle. When the ADD GAR-
MENTS light is illuminated, it is safe to pause the cy-
cle and add more items to the load. If garments are
added when the ADD GARMENTS light is off, the
washer will not adjust for these items which could
result in poor performance and/or fabric damage.

washer.
2. Open the lid after it unlocks.
3. Add your additional items.
