19 Operating Instructions
Suitable options will automatically be indicated
when the cycle is selected.
To add options, press the corresponding options
buttons to illuminate the selections desired. To de-
lete options, press the options buttons again and
the indicator lights will turn off.
To protect your fabrics, not all options are available
with every cycle. The indicator will not light if the
option is not available with that cycle. Occasion-
ally, two options in the same cycle will confl ict with
each other, like extra spin and eco friendly. When
this happens, the option selected fi rst will cause the
confl icting option to not be selectable.
Options
NOTE
To change the options once the cycle has
begun, press the pause button, make the new
selections and press start again.
All options selected for the cycle, except add
steam (on select models) will be remembered and
recalled each time that cycle is selected in the
future. To prevent unintentional and accidental ex-
posure of delicate material to unexpected steam,
the add steam option (on select models) will not
be remembered and must be reselected each time.
STAIN CLEAN (on select models)
Use the stain clean option to add a 5-minute soak
in the middle of the wash portion of the heavy duty,
whites, colors, normal, casual, and delicate cycles.
EXTRA RINSE
Use this option when additional rinsing is desired to
remove excess dirt and detergent. It is recommend-
ed for heavily soiled loads or if household members
have sensitive skin. Extra rinse occurs before the fi -
nal rinse when the liquid fabric softener is dispensed.
EXTRA SPIN
Use this option to add minutes to the fi nal spin at
the selected Spin Speed. This will improve water
extraction, decrease drying time and save energy.
ECO FRIENDLY
The eco friendly option reduces the hot and warm
water temperature a few degrees to save energy. It is
available with all cycles except deep clean sanitize
and spin only.
CHIME
A chime will sound at the end of the cycle when
this option is selected. The signal has an adjust-
able volume level or can be turned off.
NOTE
Steam may not necessarily be visible inside •
drum during a steam wash cycle.
Steam may not be present during entire steam •
wash cycle.
IMPORTANT
If steam is selected, rinse temperatures will be •
elevated.
If washer is paused during a steam wash •
cycle, the door will remain locked due to higher
temperature in drum. DO NOT force open - it
will unlock upon cooling.
During a steam cycle you may notice steam •
exiting from the rear vent of the washer - this is
normal and not cause for alarm.
NOTE
The add steam option (on select models) will be
retained and recalled if it is selected and saved in
the my favorite cycle.
PREWASH
Select this option to add a short initial wash peri-
od to a cycle. Heavily soiled and stained loads will
prewash for approximately 5 minutes. The water
will drain and the load will automatically advance
to the regular wash cycle.
See step 5 in “Operating Your Washer” section in this
guide for details on adding detergent to the dispenser.
ADD STEAM (on select models)
Select this option to add approximately 20 minutes
of tumbling in steam during the wash cycle. It is
recommended for heavily soiled loads to help en-
hance the release of tough stains from fabrics after
initial agitation. It is available with all cycles except
colors, delicates, hand wash and spin only.
