START
■ After you have selected a new cycle, press once to start the cycle.
■ Press twice to select the last cycle used and start the washer.
■ If the washer is running, press once to interrupt the cycle; press again to continue
the cycle.
STOP
This pad should not be used to interrupt or pause a cycle.
Pressing this pad will cancel the current settings and the settings will be lost.
Estimated Time Remaining
■ 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.
NOTE: If PRESOAK is selected and a follow up wash cycle is not chosen, two dashes will
come up in the display.

BLEACH SIGNAL (on some models)
The Bleach Signal is a reminder signal that can be turned on to remind you to add bleach
at the proper time in the wash cycle. Adding detergent and bleach at the same time
reduces the effectiveness of both the enzymes in the detergent and the chlorine in the
bleach. By adding bleach later in the wash cycle, you allow the detergent’s enzymes to
remove dirt and stains first, and then provide a more effective dose of liquid bleach to
whiten and sanitize your clothes.
