5 OPTIONS You may 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. DELAY START Touch Delay Start to delay the start of the wash cycle up to 12 hours "12H". Touch Delay Start until a "0H" appears in the status display to turn off, or touch POWER. END BEEP End Beep signals that a cycle has completed. STEAM CLEAN (depending on model) The Steam Clean option adds additional soak and wash time to many cycles to help remove tough stains, as well as a steam boost for added cleaning power. Steam Clean uses a heater within the washer to maintain the selected temperature setting throughout the wash period. Steam Clean may be selected as an option with other cycles. DEEP CLEAN (depending on model) This option provides enhanced cleaning action for tough stains. It will add additional agitation and soak time to the cycle. CLEAN BOOST (depending on model) This option provides enhanced cleaning action for tough stains. It will add additional agitation and soak time to the cycle. UTILITY TOOLS Clean Washer Use this every 30 washes to keep the inside of your washer fresh and clean. This cycle uses a higher water level. Use with affresh® Washer Cleaner tablet or liquid chlorine bleach to thoroughly clean the inside of your washer. This cycle should not be interrupted. See "Washer Care." IMPORTANT: Do not place garments or other items in the washer during the Clean Washer cycle. Use this cycle with an empty wash tub. Rinse & Spin Combines a rinse and high speed spin for loads requiring an additional rinse cycle or to complete a load after power interruption. Also use for loads that require rinsing only. EXTRA RINSE This option can be used to automatically add a second rinse to most cycles. PRESOAK Use this option to add an extra soak period to any cycle to help loosen tough stains. The washer will fill and then pause to soak, and then begin the selected cycle. 6 CYCLE MODIFIERS When you select a cycle, its default settings or the previous cycle selection used will light up. TEMPERATURE Temperature Control senses and maintains uniform water temperatures by regulating incoming hot and cold water. Select a wash temperature based on the type of fabric and soils being washed. For best results and following the garment label instructions, use the warmest wash water safe for your fabric. • On some models and cycles, warm and hot water will be cooler than what your previous washer provided. • Even for cold wash settings, some warm water may be added to the washer to maintain a minimum temperature. SOIL LEVEL Soil Level (wash time) is preset for each wash cycle. As you touch the Soil Level pad, the cycle time (minutes) will increase or decrease in the Estimated Time Remaining display and a different wash time will appear. Select the most suitable setting for your load. For heavily soiled items, select Heavy Soil Level for more wash time. For lightly soiled items, select Light Soil Level for less wash time. Lighter soil level setting will help reduce tangling and wrinkling. 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. 7 LID The Lid Lock ( ) indicator lights up when the lid is locked and cannot be opened. If you need to open the lid, touch and hold START/PAUSE. The lid will unlock once the washer movement has stopped. This may take several minutes if the load was spinning at high speed. Touch and hold START/PAUSE button again to restart the cycle. 6
