LOCKED/LID LOCKED
7
To allow for higher spin speeds, the lid
will lock and the Lid Locked light will turn
on. When this light is lit, the lid is locked
and cannot be opened. When this light is
blinking, the washer is paused. When this
light is off, the lid can be opened.
If you need to open the lid, press
START/STOP. The lid will unlock once
the washer movement has stopped.
This may take several minutes if the
load was spinning at high speed.
Press START/STOP again to resume
the cycle.
CYCLE STATUS/PROGRESS LIGHTS INDICATOR
8
The Cycle Status/Progress Lights show the progress
of a cycle. At each stage of the process, you may
notice sounds or pauses that are different from
traditional washers.
SENSING FILL
When the Start/Stop button is pressed, the washer
will fill to the selected water level. If the lid is closed
when the washer is done filling, the washer will begin
operation.
If the lid is opened or the START/Pause button is
pressed, the cycle will pause. Closing the lid and/
or pressing the START/Pause button will resume the
cycle. If the cycle remains paused with the lid open
for 10 minutes, the washer will pump out the water.
NOTE: The lid will remain unlocked throughout the
wash cycle, then lock before the first spin cycle begins.
WASH
You will hear the agitator moving the load. The motor
sounds may change at different stages in the cycle.
The wash time is determined by the selected soil level.
RINSE
You will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the washer
rinses and moves the load. You may hear the motor turning
on briefly (short hum) to move the basket while filling.
Some cycles use spray rinsing. After draining and spinning
out wash water, the washer will continue to spin and spray
in rinse water for the entire rinse time.
SPIN/FINAL SPIN
The washer spins the load at increasing speeds for proper
water removal, based on the selected cycle and spin speed.
DONE/CYCLE COMPLETE
Once the cycle is complete, this light will come on. Remove
the load promptly for best results.
