What's New Under the Lid?

Your new washer will operate differently than your past agitator-style washer.

Lid Lock

After a cycle is started, water will immediately enter the
washer, the lid will lock, and the Lid Locked light will turn
on and remain lit. When the lid locks and you need to
add a garment, the lid can only be opened by pressing
START for 3 seconds and waiting for it to unlock. The lid
will only unlock after wash basket movement has stopped.
Depending on when in the cycle you try to pause, it may
take 3 seconds to a few minutes for the lid to unlock.
Press START to resume the cycle.
Sounds
At different stages of the wash cycle, you may hear
sounds and pauses that are different from those of your
previous washer. There will be different kinds of humming
and whirring sounds as the agitator moves the load. And,
sometimes, you may hear nothing at all as the washer
allows time for clothes to soak.
IMPORTANT:
• After the washer basket fills to the selected water level, the lid must be closed before the wash cycle can start. If filling stops with
the lid open, close the lid.
• After pausing and opening the lid, the lid must be closed and the Start button pressed again.

Progressive Spray Rinse
All cycles default to a progressive spray rinse. During
these cycles, you will hear water enter the washer as the
tub spins, allowing the rinse water to penetrate clothes.
Check the "Cycle Guide" for details.
