washer. Turn the knob to select a cycle for your laundry load.
See “Cycle Guide” for detailed descriptions of cycles.

Modifiers and Options have been selected. Press START/

WASH TEMP/RINSE TEMP
Auto Temperature Control senses and maintains uniform
water temperatures by regulating incoming hot and cold
water.

and soils being washed. For best results and following
the garment label instructions, use the warmest wash
water safe for your fabric.

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.

lock and the Lid Lock light will turn on. This light indicates
that the lid is locked and cannot be opened.
If you need to open the lid, press START/
PAUSE.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 again
to resume the cycle.
