Movement

Speed (rpm) - Revolutions per minute of basket spin.

Reversing - In this example the basket will rotate counterclockwise for 1.5 seconds, stop for
30.5 seconds, then rotate clockwise for 1.5 seconds, stop for 30.5 seconds and then repeat
the sequence throughout the wash and rinse portions of the cycle.

Spin Cycle - The spin cycle is described in the charts on pages 6-20 through 6-22. In this
example the Hand Washable cycle will use the LS3 spin profile.

Level

The pressure switch can detect three levels of water in the tub. L1 indicates the operating water
level. In this example the water level allowed through out the cycle is level 2. In other cycles
the water level can vary from L1 to L3. The pressure switch will fill to the L1 level, then the
flowmeter will allow an additional 50% for L2 and an additional 150%, (from L1), to the L3 level.

Dispenser Box

This line describes which portion of the dispenser box will be used during the cycle. In this
example only the Main Wash (mw) and Fabric Softener (soft) are used. Other portions of the
dispenser box are; Prewash (pw) and Bleach (bleach).

Temp

Fill - The water temperature is variable based on consumer input and what is allowable by the
cycle.

Heating - This depends on whether the unit is equipped with a heating element and whether
the cycle calls for heating. In this example the heater is not used

Time

This line describes the length of time each portion of the cycle will take. The time for each fill
portion is based on input from the pressure switch.

Door

The door is locked throughout the cycle except for the Child Security Routine.
