1 POWER Touch to turn the washer on and off. Touch to stop/cancel a cycle at any time. NOTE: Turning the Wash Cycle knob will also turn the washer on. 2 WASH CYCLE KNOB Turn the knob to select a cycle for your laundry load. An LED will light up for the cycle selected. NOTE: The Clean Washer with affresh® LED will flash when the washer has run 30 wash cycles as a reminder to run the Clean Washer with affresh® cycle. See "Cycle Guide" for detailed descriptions of cycles. NOTE: For best results when using the Wash & Dry cycle, use for loads weighing 2 lbs and less, such as a soccer uniform or a running tank and shorts. Allow the cycle to run the full duration of 12 hours. 3 START Touch and hold for 3 seconds until the light above START comes on to start a cycle, or touch once while a cycle is in process to pause it. If you want to add a garment, you can touch START when the "Add Garment" LED is on. 4 LED DISPLAY AND SETTINGS When you select a cycle, its default settings will light up and the Estimated Time Remaining will be displayed. Factors such as load size, wash temperature, and water pressure may affect the time shown in the display. Tightly packing, unbalanced loads, or excessive suds may cause the washer to lengthen the cycle time, as well. Touch the desired setting along the bottom of the display to adjust. See "Cycle Guide" for available settings on each cycle. Not all settings are available with all cycles. Cycle Status Lights For details, see "Cycle Status Lights" section. Load & Go™ - Detergent Concentration and Water Hardness (on some models) Touch DETERGENT CONCENTRATION to set detergent concentration from 2x to 6x. Touch WATER HARDNESS to set water hardness (normal, hard, or soft). For details, see "About Detergent Concentration" section. IMPORTANT: When using the dispenser cartridge with concentrated liquid detergent, be sure to change the detergent concentration settings in the control if the detergent used is different than factory preset of 2x concentration. Wash Temp The recommended wash temperature is preset for each cycle. You may also select a wash temperature based on the type of fabric and soils being washed. For best results, use the warmest wash water safe for your fabric, following the garment label instructions. All wash temperatures feature a cold rinse. Spin This washer automatically selects the spin speed based on the cycle selected. Some preset speeds can be changed. n Faster spin speeds mean shorter dry times, but may increase wrinkling in your load. n Slower spin speeds reduce wrinkling, but will leave your load more damp. Soil Soil level (wash time) is preset for each wash cycle. When you change the soil setting, the cycle time will increase or decrease in the Estimated Time Remaining display. For most loads, use the soil level that is preset with the cycle you have chosen. For heavily soiled and sturdy fabrics, use the Soil setting to select more wash time. For lightly soiled and delicate fabrics, use the Soil setting to select less wash time. Lower soil level settings will help reduce tangling and wrinkling. Presoak Touch to add a Presoak time of your choice to a wash cycle. Items will gently tumble through the detergent and water for the selected time to help loosen tough stains. 5 OPTIONS Touch to activate additional wash options or additional features on the washer before touching Start. Additional wash options or additional features selected after touching Start may not activate. Once a wash option or additional feature is selected, it is saved for the cycle selected. To return to factory default cycle settings, unplug washer for 30 seconds; then plug back in. A Adjust Delay Time Touch - or + to delay the start of the wash cycle by up to 8 to 12 hours depending on your model. B FanFresh® Option (on some models) The FanFresh® option will periodically tumble the load after the end of the cycle for up to 12 hours, while the integrated fan circulates air through the washer to reduce humidity. To turn on the FanFresh® option, touch FanFresh. If, however, the FanFresh® option is turned on, it will stay on for all future cycles until turned back off - the washer remembers the last on/off status set. To turn off the FanFresh® option, touch FanFresh. You may also activate the FanFresh® option without running a cycle by touching and holding POWER for one second, then touching and holding FanFresh for 3 seconds, then touching and holding START for 3 seconds. To turn off the FanFresh® option when it is running, touch POWER. NOTE: The door will lock while the FanFresh® option is active. To cancel the option and unlock the door, touch POWER. C Extra Rinse Activate this option to add an extra rinse to most cycles. NOTE: Extra Rinse can also be used to turn on the Drum Light (on some models). Simply touch and hold EXTRA RINSE for 3 seconds. 6
