Stain Treatment Your washer is equipped with powerful stain treatment tools. Depending on your model, use one of the options below to deal with tough stains on your garments. See step 5 in "Operating Your Washer" section in this guide for details on adding stain additives to the dispenser. StainTreat (400 Series Washer) Select this option to add a short initial wash period to available cycles using the stain treatment additives in the Pre-Wash chamber. After the Stain wash phase, the load will automatically advance to the regular wash cycle. StainTreatII (500 Series Washer) Select this option when available and rotate the cycle selector to rotate through the stain types below. Stain additive and main detergent will recirculate in the agitating load for approximately 20 minutes and then the washer will advance to the regular wash cycle. ●Any Stain Recirculating wash solution will be heated by boost heater. ● Blood Recirculating wash solution will NOT be heated by boost heater to prevent setting blood stains. ● Chocolate Stain wash time is extended with additional heating by boost heater. StainSoak (600 Series Washer) Similar to StainTreatII above with the added feature of detergent/treatment mixing with SmartBoost pump technology before the Stain washing phase. perfect steamTM (on select models) Select this option to add approximately 20 minutes of tumbling in steam during the wash cycle. It is recommended for heavily soiled loads to help enhance the release of tough stains from fabrics after initial agitation. NOTE ● Steam may not necessarily be visible inside drum during a steam wash cycle. ● Steam may not be present during entire steam wash cycle. IMPORTANT ● If steam is selected, rinse temperatures will be elevated. ● If washer is paused during a steam wash cycle, the door will remain locked due to higher temperature in drum. DO NOT force open - it will unlock upon cooling. ● During a steam cycle you may notice steam exiting from the rear vent of the washer - this is normal and not cause for alarm. extra rinse Use this option when additional rinsing is desired to remove excess dirt and detergent. It is recommended for heavily soiled loads or if household members have sensitive skin. wrinkle release After the final spin, the washer will perform a "dry" agitation to loosen the garments from the side of the drum. extended refresh (on certain models) Select extended refresh if you know you will be unable to remove the load right after the cycle is complete. The washer recognizes the load has sat too long and will do a rinse and spin to keep the load fresh. It will do this for up to 12 hours. When you are ready to remove the load during the extended refresh segment, you must press cancel to end the cycle and open the door. delay start Use delay start to select a wash time convenient to your schedule or during off-peak energy hours. The start of any cycle can be delayed for 30 minutes to 12 hours.
