Tumble Care or Extended Tumble (on some models)
Freshly tumbles your garments periodically for up to 8 hours after the wash cycle is complete
to lessen the setting of wrinkles and creases when you are not able to move clothing to the
dryer right away.
At the end of the cycle, the display will scroll "END" and after ten minutes the Tumble Care or
Extended Tumble will begin. It can be stopped at any time by pressing the Power button.
NOTE: The Tumble Care or Extended Tumble option cannot be added to the My Cycle
feature.
Volume (on some models)
This button has two functions:
To change the loudness of the end of cycle signal, press the button as many times as
needed to reach the desired volume. There are four sound levels including OFF.
To turn the button sounds ON/OFF, press and hold the button for 3 seconds.
Cycle Signal (on some models)
Use the Signal pad to change the volume of the end of cycle signal.
Press the pad until you reach the desired volume.
Lock Controls or Lock (depending on model)
You can lock the controls to prevent any selections from being made. Or you can lock or
unlock the controls after you have started a cycle.
Children cannot accidentally start the washer by touching buttons with this option selected.
To lock the washer, press and hold the Lock Controls or Lock button for 3 seconds.
To unlock the washer controls, press and hold the Lock Controls or Lock button for 3
seconds.
A sound is made to indicate the lock/unlock status.
The indicator light above the button will illuminate when the controls are locked.
NOTE: The Power button can still be used when the machine is locked.
Display
Displays the approximate time remaining until the end of the cycle.
NOTE: The cycle time is affected by the water pressure in your home and the balance
of the load in the washer. You may see the time remaining on the display increase to
accommodate a slower spin speed to handle unbalanced loads.
On some models, cycle status is also displayed and certain features such as Delay Wash or
Steam are shown indicating they have been selected.
If an out-of-balance condition is detected by the washer, the Spin light will blink during
the remaining portion of the cycle and will stay illuminated for a short time after cycle
completion. On some models, there is also a "Load Rebalancing" message displayed. When
this occurs, the washer is taking actions to correct the out-of-balance condition and complete
the cycle normally. In some cases, the washer may not be able to balance the load and
spin up to full speed. If you notice the load is more wet than usual at the end of the cycle,
redistribute the load evenly in the wash tub and run a Drain + Spin cycle.
