Normal Sounds

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 or unlocked, and during the washing, rinsing, or 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. See "Troubleshooting."

Options and Modifiers

You can customize your wash by adding options to your cycle
selections. Not all Options are available with all cycles.
See the "Laundry Guide" section for an overview of possible
options for each Wash Cycle selection.
If an option is available with a selected cycle, the light for that
option will illuminate when selected.
If an option is unavailable with a selected cycle, there will be a
blinking light. The light for that option will not illuminate 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.
Prewash
Prewash is an 18-minute soak phase that is added before the
main wash. During prewash, there is only a small amount of
tumbling.
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 in the normal rinse. You
may select or deselect by pressing EXTRA RINSE.
Wrinkle Release
Use this option to increase the quantity of incoming water and
decrease the spin speed and duration in the rinse period. The last
spin phase will have a lower spin speed and last a shorter time.
