Sanitized
This washer has a Sanitize water temperature, that is certified by
NSF International, an independent third-party testing and
certification organization. The certification verifies that the
sanitizing cycle reduces 99.9% of bacteria typically found on
clothing, bedding and towels, and there is no carryover of
bacteria between loads after the cycle is complete.
Certified to Sanitize
If the "Sanitize" wash temperature was selected, when the wash
cycle is complete, the DONE status light will illuminate, the door
unlocks, and the wash load can be removed from the washer.
The washer powers down automatically 60 minutes after the
cycle is complete and the DONE status light turns off.

Sensing/Revising Estimated Time
The cycle times vary automatically based on your water pressure,
water temperature, detergent, and clothes load.
The washer will automatically sense the progress in the cycle and
adjust the Estimated Time Remaining display. While the washer is
sensing, the estimated time will flash and the Sensing status light
will glow. When the sensing is complete, the flashing stops, the
status light goes off and the Estimated Time Remaining display is
updated.
The cycle time will be extended if oversudsing occurs or the load
is unbalanced. The SUD routine removes extra suds and assures
proper rinsing of your garments. See "Troubleshooting." During
the unbalance routine the time displayed may pause until this
activity is complete, then resume with the remainder of the cycle.
Clean Washer Reminder
The Clean Washer Reminder light illuminates to remind you to
use the Clean Washer cycle regularly. The reminder light will
illuminate every 30 cycles. The reminder light may be reset by
either running the Clean Washer cycle, or by pressing the CLEAN
WASHER RESET button.
