Delay Wash To begin the wash cycle later, select DELAY WASH until the desired delay time (in hours) shows in the Estimated Time Remaining display, and then select START. The countdown to the wash cycle will show in the display window, and the button indicator will blink until the cycle begins. IMPORTANT: When delaying a cycle, use only powdered detergents in the high efficiency "HE" detergent compartment since liquid detergents may seep out of the compartment during Delay Wash, before the wash cycle begins. Clean Washer Reminder The Clean Washer Reminder light illuminates to remind you to use the Clean Washer cycle regularly. The reminder light will illuminate every 30 cycles. The reminder light may be reset by either running the Clean Washer cycle, or by pressing the CLEAN WASHER RESET button. Deep Clean with Steam Use this option for heavily soiled loads that need improved stain treatment, loads with multiple types of stains, or loads you suspect as having stains, but are afraid may have been missed (no sorting or searching for stains). When Deep Clean with Steam is selected, the water temperature of the selected wash cycle is automatically set to warm. The water will then be slowly heated to the temperature selected, along with steam, to aid in stain removal. This option will provide optimal removal of organic stains such as blood and grass. Oxi Dispenser Use this option when using an oxygen based stain fighter or color-safe bleach in the dispenser. Selecting this option will delay the addition of these products into the wash cycle and improve their effectiveness. Add using the "Oxi / Color-safe bleach" section of the dispenser drawer. Extra Rinse An extra rinse can be used to aid in the removal of detergent or bleach residue from garments. This option provides an additional rinse with the same water temperature as the first rinse. Cycle Signal This signal is helpful when you are removing items from the washer as soon as it stops. Press CYCLE SIGNAL to select Loud, Soft, or Off. Button Sound Button sounds are used to notify you of what has been selected or to let you know when something is not available. Press BUTTON SOUND to select Loud, Soft, or Off. Modifiers Preset cycle settings of Water Temperature, Spin Speed, and Soil Level can be changed. You can change a modifier after starting a cycle anytime before the selected modifier begins. Not all modifiers are available with all cycles and options. Available options will glow amber. Current selections will glow green. If a modifier is unavailable with a selected cycle, the light will not illuminate. NOTE: The panel shown below may be different from that of your model. To change the water temperature, select the WATER TEMP button until the desired setting glows green. To change the spin speed, select the SPIN SPEED button until the desired setting glows green. To change cycle time, select SOIL LEVEL button until the desired setting glows green. Water Temp Select a water temperature based on the type of load you are washing. Use the warmest wash water safe for fabrics. Follow garment label instructions. Warm rinses leave the loads drier than cold rinses. Warm rinses increase wrinkling. In cold climates, a warm rinse makes the load more comfortable to handle. Cold rinses save energy. This washer has a Sanitize water temperature that is certified by NSF International, an independent third-party testing and certification organization. The certification verifies that the sanitizing cycle reduces 99.9% of bacteria typically found on clothing, bedding, and towels, and there is no carryover of bacteria between loads after the cycle is complete. Certified to Sanitize The Sanitize temperature provides an extra high temperature to remove 99.9% of certain bacteria. It is recommended that you set your hot water heater to 120ºF (49ºC) to ensure proper performance during this cycle. The Sanitize Water Temp uses high water temperatures. Please check garment care label to avoid garment damage. In wash water temperatures colder than 60°F (15.6°C), detergents do not dissolve well. Soils may be difficult to remove. 18
