Soil Level

Changing the SOIL level increases or decreases the wash time to remove different amounts of soil.
To change the SOIL level, press the SOIL level button until you have reached the desired setting.

You can choose between Extra Light, Light, Normal, Heavy or Extra Heavy soil.

Spin Speed

Changing the SPIN setting changes the final spin speed of the cycles. Always follow the garment

manufacturer’s care label when changing the SPIN setting.
To change the SPIN setting, press the SPIN setting button until you have reached the desired

setting. You can choose between No Spin, Low, Medium, High or Extra High Spin. Higher spin

speeds are not available on certain cycles, such as Delicates.
Higher spin speeds remove more water from the clothes and will help reduce dry time, but may

also increase the possibility of setting wrinkles on some fabrics.

Wash Temp

Adjust to select the proper water temperature for the wash cycle. The rinse water is always cold

to help reduce energy usage and reduce setting of stains and wrinkles.
Follow the fabric manufacturer’s care label when selecting the wash temperature.
To change the wash temperature, press the TEMP button until you have reached the desired

setting. You can choose between Tap Cold, Cold, Warm, Hot or Sanitize. The Sanitized wash

temperature is not available on certain cycles, such as Delicates.
When selecting the Sanitize wash temperature, the washer increases the water temperature to

sanitize and kill more than 99% of many common bacteria found in home laundry. The sanitize

wash temperature is only available on the Whites/Heavy Duty wash cycle. For best results, select

the heavy soil setting when using the Sanitize wash temperature setting.

Start/Pause

Press to start a wash cycle. If the washer is running, pressing it once will pause the washer and

unlock the door. This function can be used to add garments during a cycle. Press again to restart

the wash cycle.
NOTE: If the washer is paused and the cycle is not restarted within 15 minutes, the current wash

cycle will be cancelled.
NOTE: In some cases the washer will drain first, then unlock the door when it is paused.
NOTE: The washer performs automatic system checks after pressing the START/PAUSE button.

Water will flow in 45 seconds or less. You may hear the door lock and unlock before water flows; this

is normal.
