and the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is pressed, the hot
water valve will be turned ‘ON’. This output will remain
‘ON’ until the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is pressed
again to turn ‘OFF’ the output. The control will not allow
the machine to fill past the High water level.
• When the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is set to “Wrinkle
Control” and the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is pressed,
the cold water valve will be turned ‘ON’. This output will
remain ‘ON’ until the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is
pressed again to turn ‘OFF’ the output. The control will
not allow the machine to fill past the High water level.
• When the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is set to
“Delicates” and the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is
pressed, the bleach valve will be turned ‘ON’. This output
will remain ‘ON’ until the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is
pressed again to turn ‘OFF’ the output. The control will
not allow the machine to fill past the High water level.
• When the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is set to “Hand
Wash” and the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is pressed,
the pre wash valve will be turned ‘ON'. This output will
remain ‘ON’ until the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is
pressed again to turn ‘OFF’ the output. The control will
not allow the machine to fill past the High water level.
• When the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is set to “Quick
Wash” and the Rotary Cycle Selector is pressed, the
drain pump will be turned ‘ON’. This output will remain
‘ON’ until the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is pressed
again to turn ‘OFF’ the output.
• Pressing the Delay key will turn ‘ON’ the motor and the
Delay LED. This output and the LED will remain ‘ON’ until
the Delay key is pressed again to turn ‘OFF’ the output.
When activated, the machine will tumble for 5 seconds in
the CW direction, pause for 2 seconds, tumble in the
CCW direction for 5 seconds, pause for 2 seconds;
repeating this pattern until Delay key is pressed again to
turn ‘OFF’ the tumbling.
Note : All tumble speeds are assumed to be 45 rpm.
• Pressing the Chime key will unlock the door and turn
‘ON’ all the LED’s above the Chime key. This output will
attempt to unlock one time, if safe to do so.

and all the Wash / Rinse Temp LED’s will turn ‘ON’.
Pressing the Chime key will unlock the door and the all
the Chime LED’s will turn ‘ON’.

and the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is pressed, the
bleach valve and the cold water valve will be turned ‘ON'
to check the fabric softener fill. This output will remain
‘ON’ until the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is pressed
again to turn ‘OFF’ the output. The control will not allow
the machine to fill past the High water level.
• Pressing the Rinse & Spin key will turn ‘ON’ the heater if
the water level is above the Heater Safety Level. If the
water level is below the Heater Safety Level, a warning
beep will be given and the heater will not be turned ‘ON’.
