4 LED DISPLAY AND SETTINGS BUTTONS When you select a cycle, its default settings will light up and the Estimated Time Remaining will be displayed. Use the buttons along the bottom of the display to adjust settings. See "Cycle Guide" for available settings on each cycle. Not all settings are available with all cycles. Cycle Status Indicators The Cycle Status Indicators show the progress of a cycle. See "Cycle Status Indicators" for additional information about each step. Temperature 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 Speed This washer automatically selects the spin speed based on the cycle selected. Preset speeds can be changed. • Faster spin speeds mean shorter drying times, but may increase wrinkling in your load. • Slower spin speeds reduce wrinkling, but will leave your load more damp. Soil Level Soil Level (wash time) is preset for each wash cycle. As you press the Soil Level button, 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, press Soil Level to select more wash time. For lightly soiled and delicate fabrics, press Soil Level to select less wash time. Lower Soil Level settings will help reduce tangling and wrinkling. 5 ADDITIONAL OPTIONS Use these buttons to activate additional wash options or additional features on the washer.
