U)M3
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.
Q NOTE------------------------------------------
• 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.

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.
