CONTROL PANEL AND FEATURES (continued)
DEEP CLEAN
This option provides enhanced cleaning
action for tough stains. It will add additional
time to the cycle. Deep Clean should be
started on a dry load only and must be
selected before tub has started to fill.
DELAY WASH
If you would like to set your washer to start
at a preferred time, select the Delay Wash
Option. You can use this option to delay start
of a wash cycle for up to 10 hours (depend-
ing on model). Press Delay Wash button
once to delay 1 hour. If you want a longer
delay period, press and hold the button until
your desired delay time (in hours) shows in
the Estimated Time Remaining display. Then
press START/PAUSE. The countdown to the
wash cycle will show in the display window.
ECOBOOST
The EcoBoost option allows you to increase
your energy savings on your wash cycles.
When this option is used, the wash cycle
will use cooler wash water than the selected
cycle and may increase the spin speed for
faster drying.
PRESOAK
Use this option to add an extra soak period
to any cycle when washing heavily soiled
garments.
EXTRA RINSE
This option can be used to automatically add
a second rinse to most cycles.
FABRIC SOFTENER
This option must be selected if using fabric
softener during a cycle. It ensures that fabric
softener is added at the correct time in the
rinse for even distribution.
CYCLE SIGNAL
Use this option to adjust volume of the signal
that sounds at end of cycle. A louder signal is
helpful in removing items as soon as cycle is
complete.
Press and hold Cycle Signal for 5 seconds to
turn the button sounds off or on.
EST TIME REMAINING DISPLAY
The Estimated Time Remaining display
shows the time required for the cycle to com-
plete. Factors such as load size and water
pressure may affect the time shown in the
display. Overloading, unbalanced loads, or
excessive suds may cause the washer to
adjust the cycle time, as well.
CYCLE STATUS LIGHTS INDICATOR
The Cycle Status Lights shows the progress
of a cycle. At each stage of the process, you
may notice sounds or pauses that are differ-
ent from traditional washers.
SENSING
When the START button is pressed, the
washer will first perform a self-test on the lid
lock mechanism. You will hear a click, the
basket will make a slight turn, and the lid will
unlock briefly before locking again. Once the
lid has locked the second time, the washer
will slowly spin the dry load to estimate
the load size, and begin adding water. The
washer will then move the load briefly, pause
to allow water to soak in to the load, and re-
sume adding water. This process may repeat
until the correct amount of water has been
added for the load. You may also hear water
flowing through the dispenser, adding deter-
gent to the load.
NOTE: The sensing light may also come on
during the Soak and Wash portions of the
cycle. This is normal.
