ONE RINSE WITH FABRIC SOFTENER

This option must be selected if using fabric softener during

a cycle. It ensures that fabric softener is added

at the correct time in the rinse for even distribution.

TWO RINSES WITH FABRIC SOFTENER

This option turns on both the Fabric Softener and the

Two Rinses option.

FABRIC SOFTENER

On models with a separate Fabric Softener knob, this option

must be set to “Yes” when using fabric softener in the fabric

softener dispenser. This ensures that fabric softener is added

at the correct time in the rinse for even distribution.

START/PAUSE/Unlock Lid BUTTON

Press to start the selected cycle; press again to pause the

cycle and unlock the lid.

NOTE: If the washer is spinning, it may take several minutes to

unlock the lid. Press and hold for 3 seconds to cancel a cycle.

CYCLE STATUS LIGHTS

The Cycle Status Lights show the progress of a cycle. At each

stage of the process, you may notice sounds or pauses that

are dierent from your previous washer. If, at any time, the cy-

cle is paused, either by opening the lid or pushing the START/

PAUSE/Unlock Lid button, the Cycle Status light will slowly

blink green at the current paused stage of the cycle. Once the

cycle is resumed, the Cycle Status light will be a solid green

color.

SENSING

When the Start/Pause/Unlock Lid button is pressed, the

washer will ll and begin sensing to determine load size

and balance.

Once sensing is complete, the washer will ll to the

appropriate level for the detected load size and then

begin the wash phase of the cycle.

If a cycle is paused at any point, the corresponding Cycle

Status Light will slowly blink. Once the cycle resumes, the

Cycle Status Light will return to a solid light.

NOTE: Sensing and wash phases will be paused by

opening the unlocked lid. Close the lid to resume the cycle.

If the lid is left open for more than 10 minutes, the washer

will cancel the cycle and pump out the water. The lid will

lock after the wash phase to begin the initial spinout and

remain locked for the remainder of the cycle.

WASH

The washer will ll to the correct water level based

on the load size and the Water Level selection.

Certain cycles may agitate during the ll process

to boost cleaning. You will hear the agitator rotate

followed by a pause lasting several seconds. When

the wash cycle begins, you will hear the agitator

increase speed. The motor sounds may change at

dierent stages in the wash cycle while the washer

performs dierent wash actions.

RINSE

Certain cycles use a spray rinse, which adds water to the

tub while the basket spins. When a fabric softener option

is selected, you will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle

as the washer rinses and moves the load. You may hear

the motor turning on briey (short hum) to move the basket

while lling.

SPIN

The washer spins the load at increasing speeds for

proper water removal, based on the selected cycle

and spin speed.

COMPLETE

Once the cycle is complete, this light will come on.

Remove the load promptly for best results.

LID LOCKED

The Lid Locked feature allows for higher

spin speeds. When the Lid Locked light is

lit, the lid is locked and cannot be opened

without pausing the cycle. When the

light is o, the lid can be opened.

To open the lid after it has been locked,

press START/PAUSE/Unlock Lid. The lid

will unlock once the washer movement

has stopped. This may take several

minutes if the load was spinning at high

speed. Press START/PAUSE/Unlock Lid

again to resume the cycle.
