HOW TO USE

OPTION BUTTONS

Your washing machine features several additional cycle
options that customize cycles to meet your individual needs.
1
Turn ON the washer and turn the cycle selector knob to
select the desired cycle.
Use the cycle modifier buttons to adjust the settings for
2
that cycle.
3
Press the cycle option button(s) for the option(s) you
would like to add. The button will light when that option
is selected. For secondary functions, press and hold
the button for three seconds. The LED will blink when
the secondary option is selected. Both options cannot be
selected together.
If the selected option is not allowed for the selected
4
cycle, the chime will sound twice to alert you and
the LED will not illuminate.
Press the START/PAUSE button to start the cycle. After a
brief delay, the door will lock and the cycle will begin.
NOTE: To protect your garments, not every option is
available with every cycle (refer to the cycle guide).
NOTE: If the START/PAUSE button is not pressed within four
minutes, the control will shut off and the settings will be lost.

DELAY START

Once you have selected the cycle and other
settings, press this button to delay the start
of the wash cycle. Each press of the button
increases the delay time by one hour, for up
to 19 hours. Once the desired delay time is
set, press the START/PAUSE button to start the delay time.

EXTRA RINSE

This option will add an extra rinse to the
selected cycle. Use this option to help
ensure the removal of detergent or bleach
residue from fabrics.

ACCELA-WASH

The Accela-Wash option uses a twin
spray water and detergent injection which
reduces cycle time while maintaining wash
performance in a normal cycle.

STAY FRESH

This feature helps keep wrinkles from setting
in clothes and helps keep them fresh if they
are not removed from the washer as soon
as the cycle is complete. Press the STAY
FRESH button to tumble the clothes intermit-
tently and circulate fresh air through the drum for up to 19
hours. Press the POWER button or the START/PAUSE button
to remove clothes at any time.
PRE WASH
Select this option to add a 16-minute
prewash, rinse and spin cycle to the chosen
cycle. This is especially useful for heavily
soiled items.

SAVE ENERGY

This option saves energy by using cooler
water while increasing the wash and rinse
times to maintain wash performance. This
feature is only available with the NORMAL
and HEAVY DUTY cycles as listed below.
To use the Save Energy option, press and hold the Pre Wash
button for three seconds.
NORMAL – Hot becomes Cold
NORMAL – Cold becomes Tap Cold
HEAVY DUTY – Hot becomes Cold
