CONTROL PANEL AND FEATURES
ESTIMATED TIME REMAINING DISPLAY
The Estimated Time Remaining display shows the time
required for the cycle to complete. Factors such as load size
and water pressure may affect the time shown in the display.
Tightly packed, unbalanced loads, or excessive suds may
cause the washer to adjust the cycle time, as well.
POWER/CANCEL BUTTON
Press to turn the washer ON or OFF.
WASH CYCLE KNOB
Use the Wash Cycle knob to select available cycles on your
washer. Turn the knob to select a cycle for your laundry load.
See “Cycle Guide” for detailed descriptions of cycles.
START/PAUSE BUTTON
Press to start the selected cycle. Be sure all desired
Modifiers and Options have been selected. Press START/
PAUSE once to unlock the lid and add a garment. Press
START/PAUSE to complete the cycle from where it was
stopped. The lid must be closed for the washer to start.
CYCLE MODIFIERS
When you select a cycle, its default modifiers will light up.
Not all cycles, options, and modifiers are available on all
models.
WASH TEMP/RINSE TEMP
Select a water temperature based on the type of load
you are washing. Use the warmest wash water suitable
for fabrics. Follow garment label instructions.
Warm rinses leave the loads drier and more comfortable
to handle than cold rinses. However, warm rinses also
increase wrinkling. Cold rinses may help with wrinkling
and save energy.
NOTE: In wash water temperatures colder than 60°F
(15.6°C), detergents do not dissolve well. Soils may be
difficult to remove.
SPIN SPEED
This washer automatically selects the spin speed
based on the cycle selected. The preset speeds can
be changed. Not all spin speeds are available with
all cycles.
• Faster spin speeds mean shorter dry times, but
may increase wrinkling in your load.
• Slower spin speeds mean less wrinkling, but will
leave your load more damp.

SOIL LEVEL
Soil Level (wash time) is preset for each wash cycle. As
you press Soil Level, the cycle time (minutes) will increase
or decrease in the Estimated Time Remaining display and
a different wash time will appear.
For most loads, use the Soil Level that is preset with the
cycle you have chosen. For heavily soiled and sturdy
fabrics, press SOIL LEVEL to select more wash time,
if needed. For lightly soiled and delicate fabrics, press
SOIL LEVEL to select less wash time, if needed. Lower
Soil Level setting will help reduce tangling and wrinkling.
CYCLE OPTIONS
When you select a cycle, its default options will light up. Not
all cycles, options, and modifiers are available on all models.
WATER SAVE SPRAY RINSE
Use this option to save water by using a spray rinse
instead of a deep water rinse. This option is the default
setting on some cycles, and selectable on other cycles.
When using fabric softener, always select the Fabric
Softener button, or select Extra Rinse; both of these
options will dispense fabric softener in a deep rinse.
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.
EXTRA RINSE
This option can be used to automatically add a second
rinse to most cycles.
END SIGNAL
Use this option to adjust volume of the signal that sounds
at end of cycle. You may select Hi, Low, or Off (no
indicator lit). A louder signal is helpful in removing items
as soon as cycle is complete.
You may also add or remove options for each cycle. Not all
options can be used with all cycles, and some are preset to
work with certain cycles.
