CYCLE STATUS LIGHTS
5
NOTE: Not all Cycle Status Lights are available on all models.
The Cycle Status 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
When START is touched and held, the washer will first
perform a self-test on the door lock mechanism and the
sensing light will come on. You will hear a click, the drum will
make a partial turn, and the door will click again as it unlocks
briefly. The door will click one more time when it locks again.
Once the door has locked the second time, the washer will
begin spinning to sense the load size. This sensing process
will continue throughout the cycle. You may also hear water
flowing through the dispenser, adding detergent to the load.
After the load size is sensed, the estimated time based on
load size will be displayed. The actual cycle time may be
lengthened; however, the display will continue to show the
estimated time.
The sensing light will blink once a second at various times
during the cycle, such as when the washer is reducing
extra suds.
Washing
During the wash cycle, this will display to let you know the
cycle is in progress.
Add Garment
When "Add Garment" is lit, you may pause the washer, open
the door, and add items. Touch and hold START to start the
washer again.
Detergent Low
When detergent in the dispenser is running low, the display
will show the detergent level (Low).
OPTIONS
6
Touch to activate additional wash options or additional
features on the washer. Not all options are available on
all models.
A
Delay Start
Touch this option to delay the start of the wash cycle
by up to 12 hours.
B
Fresh Hold/Fresh Spin
The Fresh Hold/Fresh Spin option will periodically tumble
the load after the end of the cycle for up to
while the integrated fan circulates air through the washer
to reduce humidity. Fresh Spin also periodically tumbles
the load after the end of the cycle but does not use an
integrated fan. To turn on the Fresh Hold/Fresh Spin
option, touch FRESH HOLD. If, however, the Fresh Hold/
Fresh Spin option is turned on, it will stay on for all future
cycles until turned back off – the washer remembers the
last on/off status set. To turn off the Fresh Hold/Fresh
Spin option, touch FRESH HOLD.
To turn off the Fresh Hold/Fresh Spin option when it is
running, touch POWER.
NOTE: The door will lock while the Fresh Hold/Fresh
Spin option is active. To cancel the option and unlock
the door, touch POWER.
Steam
C
The Steam option adds additional soak and wash time
to many cycles to help remove tough stains as well as
a steam boost for added cleaning power. An integrated
heater helps to maintain optimal wash temperatures.
D
Extra Rinse
Activate this option to add an extra rinse to most cycles.
E
Cycle Signal
Touch and hold CYCLE SIGNAL for about 3 seconds the
display will count down you will see "3," then "2," then
"1." The display will start displaying the sound levels you
will see "1," then "2," then "3," then "OFF." When the
CYCLE SIGNAL is released the last value shown will be
the current selection.

avoid unwanted changes or operation. Touch and hold
3 seconds again to unlock. For each second CONTROL

second; you will see "3," then "2," then "1." You may still
touch START to pause the cycle or touch POWER to turn
off the washer.
Extra Power

performance on any wash cycle with a dual temperature
wash, combining cold and hot temperature during
different phases of the wash time. To use this function
