Cycle modifier buttons

Each cycle has preset settings that are selected
automatically. You may also customize the settings
using the cycle modifier buttons. Press the button
for that option to view and select other settings.
The washer automatically adjusts the water level for
the type and size of wash load for best results and
maximum efficiency. It may seem there is no water
inside the drum in some cycles, but this is normal.
NOTE
y To protect your garments, not every wash/rinse
temperature, spin speed, soil level, or option is
available with every cycle. See the Cycle Guide
for details.
