Estimated Time Remaining Display
■ Displays the approximate time remaining until the end of the cycle.
■ If the estimated time remaining is more than 60 minutes, “1H” will flash in the display followed by the additional
remaining minutes. When the time remaining is less than 60 minutes, the timer will count down.
■ Cycle time is affected by how long it takes the washer to fill. This depends on the water pressure in your home.
The “smart” timer “learns” the amount of time it takes to fill your washer and adjusts the total time accordingly.
Wash Cycle—Cycle Selector Knob
The wash cycle controls the length of the washing process. The knob can be turned in either direction. Turning the Cycle
Selector knob after starting a cycle will stop the washer and reset the cycle to the new selection. Press START
to begin the new cycle selection.
The chart below will help you match the wash cycle setting with your clothing. The chart is ranked from longest to
shortest cycle time and wash intensity.
