Between changes in wash actions, there will be momentary pauses. You will hear water spraying and splashing during the wash and rinse cycles. These new sounds and pauses are part of normal washer operation. (See “Troubleshooting.”)

2nd Rinse
A second rinse can be used to aid in the removal of detergent or bleach residue from garments. This option provides an additional rinse with the same water temperature as the normal rinse. This is the default rinse setting for the Whitest Whites cycle. When 2nd Rinse is selected, the indicator light will glow green.
STEAM TREAT™
Use this option for heavily soiled loads that need improved stain treatment, loads with multiple types of stains, or loads you suspect as having stains, but are afraid may have been missed (no sorting or searching for stains). When STEAM TREAT™ is selected, the water temperature of the selected wash cycle is automatically set to warm. The water will then be slowly heated to the temperature selected, along with steam, to aid in stain removal. This option will provide optimal removal of organic stains such as blood. This option is available on the following cycles: Normal/Casual, Heavy Duty, Whitest Whites.
