CONTROL PANEL AND FEATURES Cycle Status Lights The Cycle Status Lights show the progress of a cycle. At each stage of the process, you may notice sounds or pauses that are different from traditional washers. Low Detergent This will light if there is enough detergent in the Optimal Dispense cartridge for only a few more cycles. Refill Detergent This will light if there is no detergent in the Optimal Dispense cartridge. 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 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 begin tumbling and adding water. This 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. Steaming This will light to show that the cycle is using steam for added cleaning power. Done Once the cycle is complete, this light will come on. Remove the load promptly for best results. 6
