WAS H
sensing wash rinse spin done lid locked
YOu will hear the motor and agitator moving the load.
During the first stage of the sensing/wash cycle, water will
partially fill the washer and then begin to move the load. It
is normal to have the sensing light on during this stage. You
will hear the agitator rotate, followed by a several second
pause. This process will repeat for several minutes, allowing
the entire load to become saturated. The lower water
[eve[ combined with H E detergent at this stage allows for
concentrated cleaning. Concentrated cleaning delivers the
detergent directly to the soils. It is normal for the load to be
above the water line during this stage. At the beginning of
the second stage, the washer will add water to the correct
[eve[ based on the load size. YOu will hear the agitator
move quicker during this stage of the wash cycle. The
motor sounds may change at different stages in the wash
cycle.

YOu will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the
washer rinses and moves the load. For cycles that use a
spray rinse you will hear water enter the washer as the tub
spins, allowing the rinse water to penetrate the clothes.
For cycles that use the extra rinse option, you will hear
sounds similar to the wash cycle as the washer rinses and
moves the load. Fabric softener will be added if the Fabric
Softener Added-Yes option was selected.
SPIN

The washer spins the load at increasing speeds for proper
water removal, based on the selected cycle and spin speed.

Once the cycle is complete, this light will come on.
Remove the load promptly for best results.
LID LOCKED
To allow for proper load sensing and
spinning, the lid will lock and the I_id
Locked light will turn on. This light
indicates that the lid is locked and
cannot be opened.
If you need to open the lid, press
START/Pause/Unlock. The lid will
unlock once the washer movement
has stopped. This may take several
minutes if the load was spinning at
high speed. Press START/Pause/Unlock
again to resume the cycle. Avoid
opening the lid during sensing. The
sensing process will start over when the
washer is restarted.
