H O W TO U S E

OPERATING THE WASHER

Press the ON/OFF button to turn on the

washer. The lights around the

cycle selector knob will illuminate.

Turn the cycle selector knob to the desired

cycle. The display will show the

preset Rinse/Wash Temperature,

Spin Speed, Soil Level, and

Option settings for that cycle.

If you would like to change the settings for

that cycle, press the appropriate cycle set-

ting button(s) until the indicator light for the

desired setting is lit.

NOTE: To protect your garments, not every

wash/rinse temperature, spin speed, soil

level, or option is available with every cycle.

Select any additional cycle options, such

as PRE-WASH, RINSE+SPIN,

QUICK CYCLE, STAIN CYCLE,

or TUB CLEAN, by pressing the

OPTION button until the desired

option is lit.
NOTE: To protect your garments,

not every wash/rinse temperature,

spin speed, soil level, or option is

available with every cycle.

Press the START/PAUSE button to begin

the cycle. The door will latch,

the display will change, and

the washer will calculate the

estimated time remaining. Once

the washer has calculated the estimated

total cycle time, the washer will start.

To pause the cycle at any time, press

START/PAUSE.
NOTE: The cycle time displayed may appear

much longer than that of a toploading

washer. The displayed time is for the

complete cycle, rather than just the agitation

portion of the cycle, as is typically shown on

a top-loading washer.
NOTE: If the temperature in the washer is

too high, the door cannot be unlocked until

the washer has cooled. If the water level is

too high, select the DRAIN & SPIN to drain

excess water. Do not try to force the door

open.

Washing time can be reduced significantly

for small or lightly soiled loads by selecting

the Speed Wash cycle and setting the Soil

Level button to Light.

E

Once you have loaded the washer and added

laundry products (detergent, bleach, and/or fabric

softener):

When the load is finished, the signal (if set)

will sound and the door will unlock.

Remove damp clothes from the washer

immediately. Check under the door seal for

small items.
