WASH
You will hear the agitator moving the load. The motor
sounds may change at different stages in the cycle. The
wash time is determined by the selected soil level.
RINSE
You will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the
washer rinses and moves the load. You may hear the
motor turning on briefly (short hum) to move the basket
while filling. Fabric softener will be added if the Fabric
Softener knob was set to YES.
Some cycles use spray rinsing. After draining and
spinning out wash water, the washer will continue to
spin and spray in rinse water for the entire rinse time.
CYCLE GUIDE
For best fabric care, choose the cycle that best fits the load being washed.
Not all cycles and options are available on all models.
SPiN
The washer spins the load at increasing speeds for
proper water removal, based on the selected cycle
and spin speed.
CYCLE COMPLETE
Once the cycle is complete, this light will come on.
Remove the load promptly for best results.
LiD LOCKED
To allow for higher spin speeds, the lid
will lock and the Lid Locked light will
turn on. When this light is on, the lid is
locked and cannot be opened. When
this light is blinking, the washer is
paused. When this light is off, the lid
can be opened.
If you need to open the lid, press
START/Pause/Unlock Lid. 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 Lid again to
resume the cycle.
