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/Unlock button is pressed, 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, then
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, the 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 into 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 the 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.

SOIL LEVEL
Select the most suitable setting for your load. For heavily soiled
and sturdy fabrics, select Heavy Soil Level for more wash time,
if needed. For lightly soiled and delicate fabrics, select Light
Soil Level for less wash time, if needed. Lighter soil level setting
will help reduce tangling and wrinkling.
WASH TEMP
Wash Temp 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 may be
cooler than your previous washer.
• Even in a cold and cool water wash, some warm water may be
added to the washer to maintain a minimum temperature.
WASH CYCLE KNOB
Use the Wash Cycle knob to select available cycles on your
washer. Turn the knob to select a cycle for your laundry load.
See “Cycle Guide” for detailed descriptions.
