Unsuccessful samples of the electrical
current readings could be an indicator of a
pump motor that is blocked, or a standpipe
that is too high, and water in the tub.
Idle Mode
The idle mode has no LEDs or relays lit; the
control is waiting for the consumer to touch a
keypad or switch.
Pause/Stop
Pause mode occurs when the consumer
presses the Start/Pause button during the
cycle. The lights that were lit, indicating the
current cycle, blink. If the Start button is not
pushed within 24 hours, the control initiates
the drain and final spin.
Power Outage
In the event of a power outage, and the
washer is not in idle, the cycle status and
modes are saved in EEPROM. When the
power resumes, the washer resumes where
it left off. (The Start button does not have to
be pressed.)
Automatic Temperature Control
The Automatic Temperature Control (ATC)
uses a mathematical system to control cold,
warm, and hot fills by turning the hot and
cold water valves on and off during the fill.
The formula limits the number of times the
valve is cycled to control noise and wear. To
prevent sudden water temperature changes
on consumer's hands, the ATC does not
function when the lid is open.
The ATC should maintain the water tempera-
ture in the tub within the ranges specified in
the following table:

Other Functions
2nd Rinse
The extra rinse selection provides a complete
second rinse to the cycle. When selected,
the electronic control limits the first rinse spin
to 3 minutes. Therefore, the final spin of 6
minutes shall occur once per cycle, whether
or not extra rinse is selected. The 2nd Rinse
will not function in a Drain+Spin wash cycle.
Extended Spin
The length of the final spin is doubled when
extended spin is selected. The length of the
wash spin cycle is not affected.
Beeper
All models have a piezo beeper for a 0.5
second-on/0.5 second-off/five repetition end-
of-cycle signal. The push buttons have a 0.1
second beep for button actuation signal.
Start/Pause and Stop/Cancel push buttons
have a 0.1 second beep when actuated in
Field Service Mode.
EEPROM
The EEPROM has the capacity to store data
about the washer and its cycles. It contains
all model definition data, and is read only at
power-up. If all lights are flashing then the
model selector is not installed properly.
Commercial Washer
The commercial washer uses the keypad
model control design. It has fewer keypad
options and is designed for apartment or
commercial noncoin applications.
