CONTROL PANEL AND FEATURES 1 2 3 4 5 8 7 6 Not all features and cycles are available on all models. 1 ESTIMATED TIME REMAINING 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. Tightly packed, unbalanced loads, or excessive suds may cause the washer to adjust the cycle time, as well. 2 POWER/CANCEL BUTTON Press to turn the washer ON or OFF. 3 WASH CYCLE KNOB Use the Wash Cycle knob to select available cycles on your washer. Turn the knob to select a cycle for your laundry load. See "Cycle Guide" for detailed descriptions of cycles. 4 START/PAUSE BUTTON Press to start the selected cycle. Be sure all desired Modifiers and Options have been selected. Press START/ PAUSE once to unlock the lid and add a garment. Press START/PAUSE to complete the cycle from where it was stopped. The lid must be closed for the washer to start. 5 CYCLE MODIFIERS When you select a cycle, its default modifiers will light up. Not all cycles, options, and modifiers are available on all models. WASH TEMP/RINSE TEMP Select a water temperature based on the type of load you are washing. Use the warmest wash water suitable for fabrics. Follow garment label instructions. Warm rinses leave the loads drier and more comfortable to handle than cold rinses. However, warm rinses also increase wrinkling. Cold rinses may help with wrinkling and save energy. NOTE: In wash water temperatures colder than 60°F (15.6°C), detergents do not dissolve well. Soils may be difficult to remove. 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. 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. 6 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. 4
