CYCLE OPTIONS
The following options may be added to most cycles.
OXI
This washer is designed to dispense laundry boosters such
as oxygenated stain treaters and color-safe bleach at the
right time in the cycle for best cleaning performance. Do not
use laundry boosters and chlorine bleach in the same cycle.
EXTRA RINSE
This option can be used to automatically add a second rinse
to most cycles.
NOTE: If you want to Drain and Spin only, select the Rinse &
Spin cycle; then touch to turn off the Extra Rinse option.
DEEP CLEAN w/Steam (depending on model)
This 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. Deep Clean w/Steam
uses a heater within the washer to maintain the selected
temperature setting throughout the wash period. Deep Clean
w/Steam 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.
AUDIO LEVEL
Use this option to adjust volume of the signal that sounds at
the end of cycle and key pad sounds. Touch once for low, a
second time for off, and a third time to loop back to high. A
higher signal is helpful in removing items as soon as cycle is
complete. Default setting is high.
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
different from traditional washers.
SENSING
When the START/Pause button is touched, the washer will
first perform a self-test on the lid lock mechanism. You will
hear a click, the basket will make a slight turn, and the lid will
unlock briefly before locking again.
Once the lid has locked the second time, the washer will use
short, slow spins to estimate the load size. These sensing
spins may take 2 to 3 minutes before water is added to the
load and you may hear the hum of these spins. If the sensing
light is on, then washer is working properly. You will hear the
motor turn the basket in short pulses to thoroughly wet the
load. The washer will then move the load briefly, pause to
allow water to soak in to the load, and resume adding water.
This process may repeat until the correct amount of water
has been added for the load. You may also hear water flowing
through the dispenser, adding detergent to the load.
NOTE: Avoid opening lid during sensing. The sensing
process will start over when the washer is restarted. The
sensing light may also come on during the Wash portion of
the cycle. This is normal.
WASH
You will hear the motor and washplate moving the load.
Unlike traditional washers, the load is not covered with
water. Low water cleaning means concentrated cleaning.
Rather than diluting detergent as done in an agitator-style
washer, this washer delivers the detergent directly to the
soils. The motor sounds may change at different stages
in the cycle. The wash time is determined by the selected
soil level.
RINSE
You will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the
washer rinses and moves the load. Fabric softener will be
added if the Timed Dispensers Fabric Softener option was
selected.
SPIN
The washer spins the load at increasing speeds for proper
water removal, based on the selected cycle and spin
speed.
DONE
Once the cycle is complete, this light will come on.
Remove the load promptly for best results.
LID LOCKED
To allow for proper load sensing and spinning, the lid
will lock and the Lid Locked light will turn on. This light
indicates that the lid is locked and cannot be opened.
If you need to open the lid, touch 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 for up
to 3 seconds to restart the cycle.
Avoid opening the lid during sensing. The sensing process
will start over when the washer is restarted.
