CONTROL PANEL AND FEATURES 1 2 3 4 56 9 8 7 Not all features and cycles are available on all models. 1 POWER BUTTON Press to turn the washer ON. Pressing once while the washer is on will cancel the current cycle, pressing twice will turn the washer OFF. 2 WASH CYCLE KNOB Turn the Wash Cycle knob to select a cycle for your laundry load. See "Cycle Guide" for detailed descriptions of cycles. 3 TIME/STATUS 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. Overloading, unbalanced loads, or excessive suds may cause the washer to adjust the cycle time, as well. The Delay Wash indicator will light if you have set a delay start to the cycle. The Add a Garment indicator will let you know when it is still possible to add items to the load. When the cycle is complete, the DONE indicator will light until the lid is opened. 4 ECO MONITOR Your washer is specially designed to conserve energy and water. Each cycle, along with any selected options, will result in different energy and water usage. To use the Eco Monitor, choose the best cycle for the load being washed, then adjust temperature and spin speed options to improve the energy usage within that cycle. 5 START/PAUSE BUTTON Press to start the selected cycle; press again to pause a cycle. 6 CYCLE SIGNAL BUTTON 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. 7 LID LOCK INDICATOR 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 restart the cycle. 8 FABRIC SOFTENER DISPENSER SELECTOR Press this button to set the Fabric Softener dispenser to automatically add liquid fabric softener to the load at the correct time. 9 CYCLE OPTIONS When you select a cycle, its default settings will light up. SOIL LEVEL Soil level (wash time) is preset for each wash cycle. As you press the Soil Level pad, 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. A lower soil level setting will help reduce tangling and wrinkling. 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. WASH/RINSE TEMP Temperature Control senses and maintains uniform water temperatures by regulating incoming hot and cold water. Select a wash temperature based on the type of fabric and soils being washed. For best results and following the garment label instructions, use the warmest wash water safe for your fabric. • Warm and hot water may be cooler than what your previous washer provided. • Even for cold wash settings, some warm water may be added to the washer to maintain a minimum temperature. 4
