Options and Extra Functions

Your washer includes several additional cycle
options to customize cycles to meet your individual
needs.
• Select the desired option after selecting the
desired cycle and settings.
NOTE
• The LED for the option will light when the option
is selected.
• To protect your garments, not every option is
available with every cycle.
• A chime will sound twice and the LED will not
light if the selected option is not allowed for the
selected cycle.
Steam
Adding this option to a wash cycle helps provide
superior cleaning performance. Using steam gives
fabrics the cleaning benefits of a very hot wash.
• Steam may not be clearly visible during steam
cycles. This is normal. Too much steam could
damage clothing.
• Do not use steam with delicate fabrics such as
wool and silk, or easily discolored fabrics.
WARNING
• Do not touch the door during steam cycles. The
door surface can become very hot and can cause
severe burns. Allow the door lock to release
before opening the door.
• Do not attempt to override the door lock
mechanism or reach into the washer during a
steam cycle. Steam can cause severe burns.
Fresh Care
Use this function when you will not be able to
unload your clothes immediately after the wash
cycle ends.
• The drum will tumble periodically for up to 19
hours to prevent wrinkles.
1
Turn on the power.
2
Select the desired cycle.
3
Press and hold the Steam button for 3
seconds to select this function.
4
Press the Start/Pause or Power button at any
time to unload laundry.
Using the Pre-wash Option
This option adds a pre-wash (for about 15 - 17
minutes) for improved cleaning of heavily soiled
or stained clothing.
NOTE
• If you select Pre-wash after putting the
detergent directly in the drum, the detergent
may be washed away, reducing the washing
performance.
Delay Wash
Once you have selected the cycle and other
settings, press the Delay Wash button to delay the
start of the wash cycle.
• Each press of this button increases the delay
time by 1 hour, for up to 19 hours.
• Once the desired delay time is set, press the
Start/Pause button to start the delay time.
NOTE
• If the Start/Pause button is not pressed to begin
the delay time, the washer automatically turns
off after a certain time and all cycle settings are
lost.
Add Garments
Use this function to add garments or remove
foreign objects like coins or keys after the cycle has
started.
1
Press the Add Garments button while the
wash cycle is running.
• The cycle pauses and the door unlocks.
2
Open the door, add garments or remove
foreign objects, and close the door.
3
Press the Start/Pause button to resume the
cycle. The cycle continues automatically.
