selection.
You can select more than one option for a cycle. Some options cannot be added to some
cycles; for example, Soak Time cannot be added to the Quick Wash cycle.
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 short tone, and the light
for that option will not illuminate when selected.
Signal On/Off
Use this option to turn the buzzer indicating the end of the cycle on or off.
Max Extract TM
Use this option to add an additional spin to any cycle to improve drying times for some heavy
fabrics by reducing excess water, which may save energy.
Extra Rinse
A second 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 the
normal rinse. This is the default rinse setting for the Whitest Whites cycle.
Soak Time
Use the Soak Time option to remove small spots or stains on fabrics. This option provides up
to a 30-minute soak time prior to the start of the selected cycle.
Using the Soak time option
The soak time option provides a soak time with warm or cold water followed by drain.

Water Temp
Select a water temperature based on the type of load you are washing. Use the warmest wash

Warm rinses leave the loads drier than cold rinses. Warm rinses increase wrinkling. In cold
climates, a warm rinse makes the load more comfortable to handle. Cold rinses save energy.

Soils may be difficult to remove.
