Status Lights
These lights show which portion of the cycle the washer is
operating. They also indicate when you can add an additional item
to the wash cycle and when the controls are locked.
Done
The Done status light stays on for 60 minutes after the cycle is
complete, and then the washer shuts off.
Controls Lock/Unlock
The Controls Lock avoids unintended use of the washer. You can
also use the control lock feature to avoid unintended cycle or
option changes during a cycle. When Controls Lock is lit, all
buttons are disabled except for Pause/Cancel and Start. You can
lock the controls while the washer is operating.
To lock the controls
Press and hold CONTROLS LOCK/UNLOCK for 3 seconds.
The status light next to the CONTROLS LOCK/UNLOCK button
will glow.
To unlock the controls
Press and hold CONTROLS LOCK/UNLOCK for 3 seconds until
th
e status light turns off.
NOTE: T
o lock or unlock the controls when the washer is off,
press and hold CONTROLS LOCK/UNLOCK for 3 seconds.
Door Locked
When the status light glows, the door is locked.
Add a garment
This washer allows an 8-minute period in which other garments
may be added to the load. You can add items to the washer if the
status indicator shows Add a Garment.
To add items
1. Select
Start/Pause once. The washer door unlocks and items
can be added.
2. T
o continue the cycle, close the door and select Start/Pause
(for approximately 1 second).
3. T
o unlock the door after the Add a Garment period, press
Power/Cancel twice. This will cancel the Wash Cycle.
Sensing/Revising Estimated Time
The cycle times vary automatically based on your water pressure,
water temperature, detergent, and clothes load.
The washer will automatically sense the progress in the cycle and
adjust the Estimated Time Remaining display. While the washer is
sensing, the estimated time will flash and the Sensing Status Light
will glow. When the sensing is complete, the flashing stops, the
status light goes off and the Estimated Time Remaining display is
updated.
The cycle time will be extended if oversudsing occurs or the load
is
unbalanced. The SUD routine removes extra suds and assures
proper rinsing of your garments. See “Troubleshooting.” During
the unbalance routine the time displayed may pause until this
activity is complete, then resume with the remainder of the cycle.
Cycles
Cycles can be selected by turning the Cycle Control knob to the
desired cycle. Each cycle is designed for different types of fabric
and soil levels. The Modifier Indicator Lights, on the right-hand
side of the panel, will change as cycles are selected.
■ Each cycle has a preset Soil Level (estimated cycle time),
Water Temperature, and Spin Speed, and may have preset
options. The preset settings provide the recommended fabric
care for the selected cycle.
■ The preset settings will glow green to show the preselected
Options and Modifiers, and be changed anytime before
START is pressed. Not all Options and Modifiers are available
with all cycles. Available selections glow amber. (To change
settings after the cycle has started, press PAUSE/CANCEL
once, then select the desired settings. Press START to
continue the cycle.)
■ Powdered detergents may not dissolve well in a slow-speed
cycle. For best results, use liquid detergent in slow-speed
cycles.
Preset cycle settings
Each cycle has a preset Soil Level (cycle time), Water
Temperature, and Spin Speed. The preset settings provide the
recommended fabric care for the selected cycle. See chart.
