27 USING YOUR WASHING MACHINE
ENGLISH NOTE
y The steam option cannot be used with all cycles.
y Steam may not be clearly visible during the steam
cycles. This is normal. Too much steam could damage
clothing.
y Do not use steam with delicate fabrics such as wool,
silk, or easily discolored fabrics.
Saving energy, COLD WASH™
Adding the COLD WASH™ option reduces energy usage and
provides the same washing performance as a warm water
wash.

Stepping, Scrubbing, Swing, Filtration), fabrics get the
cleaning benefits, without the energy usage.

others from changing the cycle settings by pressing the
buttons during the cycle.

Press and hold for 3 seconds during the wash cycle.
- When the CHILD LOCK is enabled, a N message and the

panel of the washing machine.

(When the CHILD LOCK is activated.)

y CHILD LOCK lasts after the end of cycle. If you want to

Detecting weight of load, LOAD SIZE
Loading the washing machine and pressing the start button
triggers the machine to detect the weight of the load, and
displays the load size icon on the display panel for 10
seconds. If the load size icon is not on, you can check
the weight of the load again during the cycle. This feature
will help you set the detergent amount so as to wash clothes
efficiently based on the detected load size.
Press and hold for 3 seconds during the cycle.
- The load size icon appears on the display.
NOTE
y If the washer has detected a small load size, the display
may only show one lighted bar. Only a small amount
of detergent should be used, because the amount of
clothing and the quantity of water that will be used is
small.
y The load detection routine only works with dry clothes. Since
the detection system is detecting the WEIGHT of the load,
it will be affected by unusually heavy articles in the load. For
example, a garment that is already wet that is loaded with other
items will cause the LOAD SIZE reading to be inaccurate.
