CONTROL PANEL AND FEATURES Cycle Status Lights Delay If a Delay Start is set, the Delay Start indicator will light and the delay time will count down in the display. Door Locked Door Locked will light to indicate that the door is locked and cannot be opened without first pausing or canceling the cycle. Sensing (on some models) When START is touched and held, the washer will first perform a self-test on the door lock mechanism and the sensing light will come on. You will hear a click, the drum will make a partial turn, and the door will unlock briefly before locking again. Once the door has locked the second time, the washer will drain to calibrate the sensors; then it will begin tumbling and adding water. The sensing process will continue throughout the cycle. You may also hear water flowing through the dispenser, adding detergent to the load. After the load size is sensed, the estimated time based on load size will be displayed. The actual cycle time may be lengthened; however, the display will continue to show the estimated time. The sensing light will blink once a second at various times during the cycle, such as when the washer is reducing extra suds. Add a Garment When "Add a Garment" is lit, you may pause the washer, open the door, and add items. Done Once the cycle is complete, this light will come on. Remove the load promptly for best results. The Done indicator is also lit during Fresh Spin™ option. USING THE DISPENSER DRAWER 1. Open the dispenser drawer. 2.
