HOW TO USE

CYCLE MODIFIER BUTTONS

Each cycle has default settings that are selected automatically. You may also customize these settings using the cycle modifier buttons. Press the button for the desired modifier until the indicator light for the desired value is lit. The washer automatically adjusts the water level for the type and size of wash load for best results and maximum efficiency. Due to the high-efficiency nature of this product, water levels may be much lower than expected. This is normal operation and cleaning/ rinsing performance will not be compromised.

AWASH/RINSE

Wash/Rinse selects the wash and rinse temperature combination for the selected cycle. Press the Wash/ Rinse button until the indicator light for the desired setting is lit.

Your washer features a heating element to boost the hot water temperature for Extra Hot settings. This provides improved wash performance at normal water heater settings.

Select the water temperature suitable for the type of load you are washing. Follow the garment fabric care labels for best results.

Warm rinses are regulated at approximately 86°F (30°C).

Warm rinses leave the clothes dryer than cold rinses, but will result in increased energy consumption and greater wrinkling of clothes.

Cold rinses use less energy. The actual rinse temperature depends on the temperature of the cold water at the faucet.

NOTE: To protect your garments, not every wash/rinse temperature, spin speed, soil level, or option is available with every cycle. A chime will sound and the LED will not light if a selection is not allowed (refer to pages 14 and 15).

BSPIN SPEED

Higher spin speeds extract more water from clothes, reducing drying time and saving energy.

Press the SPIN SPEED button until the desired speed is selected. Some fabrics, such as delicates, require a slower spin speed. To protect your clothing, not all spin speeds are available for all cycles.

The Drain & Spin cycle:

1.Press the POWER button to turn ON the washer.

2.Press the SPIN SPEED button to select the desired spin speed. For drain only, select the

NO SPIN option.

3.Press the START/PAUSE button. The water will drain and the clothes will tumble before the spin routine begins.

CSOIL LEVEL

Adjusting the soil level setting will modify the cycle to allow more time for heavily soiled clothes or less time for lightly soiled clothes. Press the SOIL LEVEL button until the desired soil level is selected.

DCHIME

Press repeatedly to adjust the volume of the chime and keypad tones. You may turn the end-of-cycle chime and keypad tones ON or OFF with the CHIME button.
