HOW TO USE
SPECIAL USE FEATURES
After selecting a cycle, press the SPECIAL USE but-
ton to select additional features for your load.
NOTE:
y To protect your garments, not every feature is
available with every cycle.
y If the START/PAUSE button is not pressed within
five minutes to start the cycle, the washer will
shut off and all settings will be lost.
SOAK
This option provides a 30-minute presoak prior to
the start of the selected cycle. Use the SOAK option
to presoak garments to help remove difficult spots
or stains on fabrics. At the end of the presoak time,
the selected cycle will begin with the same water
used for the soak.
NOTE: You cannot select the SOAK option in the
TUB CLEAN, ALLERGIENE™ and STEAM WASH
cycle.
STAIN CARE™
Use this option for heavily soiled loads that need
improved stain treatment. When Stain Care™ is se-
lected, the wash cycle will begin with warm water
to help prevent the setting of certain types of stains.
Then, as the cycle progresses, hot water will be add-
ed to gradually increase the water temperature to
help remove stains that require treatment at higher
temperatures.
NOTE:
y Best results are obtained with smaller loads (less
than 6 lb.)
y If you select STAIN CARE™, the COLDWASH™
option is not available.
SPIN ONLY
Use this option to drain the water from the tub and
spin out the clothes. This can be used, for example,
if the wash cycle is interrupted by a power failure.
The spin speed can be adjusted by using the SPIN
ONLY button.
1. Press the POWER button to turn on the washer.
2. Press the SPECIAL USE button repeatedly until
Spin Only is selected.
3. Press the SPIN SPEED button to select the de-
sired spin speed. Selecting NO SPIN is not al-
lowed.
4. Press the START/PAUSE button.
RINSE + SPIN
Select this option to rinse and spin a load separately
from a regular cycle. This can be helpful in prevent-
ing fresh stains from setting in fabrics. You can
change the spin speed by pressing the SPIN SPEED
button.
1. Press the POWER button to turn on the washer.
2. Press the SPECIAL USE button until the RINSE+SPIN
indicator light is lit. (The cycle light will turn off.)
3. Press the START/PAUSE button to start the cycle.
SPECIAL DRAIN FEATURE
This washer is equipped with a special feature that
is designed to make your washer as safe as pos-
sible. If the washer is paused or shut off while there
is still water in the tub, the water will drain automati-
cally after several minutes of inactivity. This helps
keep children safe by reducing the possibility of wa-
ter remaining in the tub.
Any water remaining in the tub will automatically
drain five minutes after the washer has shut off. If
the washer is paused and the START/PAUSE but-
ton is not pressed within 5 minutes, the washer will
shut off and all cycle settings will be lost. Any water
remaining will drain five minutes later.
The washer can be turned on or restarted any time
before the draining begins. However, once the wa-
ter begins to drain, all functions will be suspended
until the water has been completely drained and the
washer shuts off.
