You may hear various sounds when the door is locked and unlocked, and during the washing, rinsing, and spinning process. Between changes in wash actions, there will be momentary pauses. You will hear water spraying and splashing during the wash and rinse cycles. These new sounds and pauses are part of normal washer operation. Options You can customize your wash by adding options to your cycle selections. You can add or change an option after starting a cycle anytime before the selected option begins. Not all options are available with all cycles. Available options will glow amber. Current selections will glow green. If an option is unavailable with a selected cycle, the light will not illuminate. ■ See the "Laundry Guide" for an overview of possible options for each Wash Cycle selection. ■ You can select more than one option for a cycle. Some options cannot be added to some cycles. For example, Deep Clean cannot be added to the Quick Wash cycle. ■ If an option is unavailable with a selected cycle, there will be 3 short tones, and the light for that option will not glow when selected. 16
