To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death, disconnect power to unit before servicing, unless testing
requires power.

Quick Spin Test

and Rinse & Spin keys to start a Quick
Spin Test. Quick Spin Test steps follow:
Start spinning, and after reaching a maximum spin
speed...
Stay at maximum spin speed for 2 minutes and
stop Quick Spin Test.

Hold Quick Spin Step

If the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is
pressed during the Quick Spin Test, the
machine will hold at the next highest index speed for up
to 10 minutes. At the end of 10 minutes, the machine
will resume and finish the Quick Spin Test. To cancel
the 'Hold' and allow the Quick Spin Test to continue,
press the Delay Start and Rinse & Spin keys.

Fast Time Down Test

While any test or cycle is running in
Service Mode, pressing the
Wash/Rinse Temp key will advance the program
to the next cycle stage. Cycle stages are located at
key locations in the machine operation. As the
program is advanced it will index as follows: The
end of each fill (the same as the beginning of a
tumble session for Wash, or Rinse); at the
beginning of a drain session; at the beginning of a
spin session (at this position, check the water level,
if over reset level, drain first before entering the
spin function); at the beginning of a fill session; at
the beginning of Bleach fill; at the beginning of
Fabric Softener fill; and every 3 minutes during the
tumble sessions (Wash, and Rinses).

Quick Service Cycle

While in Service Mode, pressing the
Wash/Rinse Temp and Soil Level keys for
3 seconds will start a Quick Service Cycle. This will be
a quick check of all systems. If display shows "od" then

advance to the next cycle. The following steps are
performed: Display shows "SC".

if no diagnostic codes were logged during the test.

the end of the 10 second period.
