The Steam for Stains option adds additional soak and
wash time to many cycles to help remove tough stains.
An integrated heater helps to maintain optimal wash
temperatures. Steam for Stains includes a Steam boost for
added cleaning power. See the “Cycle Guide” for cycles that
allow the Steam for Stains option.
FRESH HOLD
®
OPTION
With the washer on, press to activate the Fresh Hold
®
option. This will periodically tumble the load after the end
of the cycle for up to 16 hours while the integrated fan
circulates air through the washer to reduce humidity. You
may also activate the Fresh Hold
®
option without running a
cycle by pressing and holding for 3 seconds, then pressing
START/PAUSE.

Additional Features
POWERSPRAY
Powerspray uses a special spray nozzle just inside the door.
This spray nozzle adds water to the load at the beginning of the
cycle as well as at different times during the cycle.
When using the Optimal Dispense cartridge, the Powerspray
nozzle is used to add water and detergent to the load. If you
are using the powdered HE detergent compartment, water
and detergent are added through the regular water inlets;
the Powerspray nozzle is not used.
Optimal Dispense Cartridge
Each dispenser cartridge holds up to 18.5 oz.
(550 ml) of liquid HE detergent, enough for up to 36
†
loads, depending on cycle and detergent concentration.
The cartridge ts into compartment (B) of the dispenser
drawer for convenient loading.
n
Change detergent concentration setting
if detergent used is different than factory
preset of 2x concentration. See “About
Detergent Concentration.”
n
Change water hardness setting if desired
level is different than factory preset of
Normal.
Powdered High Efciency “HE” detergent
compartment
This compartment holds powdered HE detergent
for a single load.
Liquid fabric softener compartment
Automatically dilutes and dispenses liquid fabric
softener at the optimum time in the cycle.
n
Use only liquid fabric softener in this dispenser.

Choosing the Right Detergent
Use only High Efciency detergents. The package will be
marked “HE” or “High Efciency.” Low-water washing creates
excessive sudsing with a non-HE detergent. Using non-HE
detergent will likely result in longer cycle times and reduced
rinsing performance. It may also result in component failure and,
over time, build-up of mold or mildew. HE detergents are made
to produce the right amount of suds for the best performance.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to determine the amount
of detergent to use.
Use only High Efciency (HE) detergent.
†
The number of loads will vary, depending on detergent concentration,
load size, cycle used, and soil level. The maximum capacity of up to
36 loads requires use of 6x concentration detergent.
