Operating Instructions

Cycle Options

To add options, press the corresponding options buttons to illuminate the selections desired. To delete options, press the options buttons again and the indicator lights will turn off. Some options require a “Press & Hold” effort to acti- vate or deactivate the secondary function.

Not all options are available on every model. To protect your fabrics, not all options are available with every cycle. If an option is not appropriate for the cycle, the indicator will not light. Occasionally, a setting and option in the same cycle will conflict with each other, such as Add Steam and Energy Saver. When this happens, the option selected first will cause the conflicting option to not be selectable.

NOTE

To change the options after the cycle starts, press PAUSE, adjust the setting and press START to resume the cycle.

Stain Treat

The Stain Treat option adds a special 10 minute soak/ pretreat agitation before the main wash. It fills initially with detergent and cold water to prevent protein stains from setting, then the internal heater is activated to heat the wash water to remove non-protein based stains. Can be used with Prewash for the toughest stains.

Add Steam

Select this option to add approximately 20 minutes of tumbling in steam during the wash cycle. It is recom- mended for heavily soiled loads to help enhance the release of tough stains from fabrics after initial agitation.

NOTE

Steam may not necessarily be visible inside drum during a steam wash cycle.

Steam may not be present during entire steam wash cycle.

IMPORTANT

If steam is selected, rinse temperatures will be elevated.

If washer is paused during a steam wash cycle, the door will remain locked due to higher temperature in drum. DO NOT force open - it will unlock upon cooling.

During a steam cycle you may notice steam exiting from the rear vent of the washer - this is normal and not cause for alarm.

Energy Saver

The Energy Saver option reduces the warm water tem- perature a few degrees to save energy.

Pre Wash

Select this option to add a short initial wash period to a cycle. Heavily soiled and stained loads will prewash for approximately 5 minutes. The water will drain and the load will automatically advance to the regular wash cycle.

See step 5 in “Operating Your Washer” section in this guide for details on adding detergent to the dispenser.

Extra Rinse

Use this option when additional rinsing is desired to remove excess dirt and detergent. It is recommended for heavily soiled loads or if household members have sensi- tive skin.

Extra Spin

Use this option to add minutes to the final spin at the selected Spin Speed. This will improve water extraction, decrease drying time and save energy.

Time Manager

Customize cycle duration to fit your schedule by shorten- ing the length of each cycle. Repeatedly press the Time Manager button to select a level of duration manage- ment - aggressively manage (quickest), moderately man- age (quicker) or no management (normal).

Delay Start

Press Delay Start to select a wash time convenient to your schedule or during off peak energy hours. The delay time selected will be displayed and begin counting down when you select START.

Drum Light (Press & Hold)

The drum light will come on whenever the door is opened to illuminate the drum during loading and unloading. Closing the door turns off the light. The drum light will automatically turn off if the door is left open more than 3 minutes.

You can activate the drum light during a cycle by press- ing and holding the Stain Treat button for 3 seconds. The light will stay on during the cycle for 3 minutes. To turn it off, press and hold the button again.

Control Lock (Press & Hold)

To lock the controls between or during cycles, press and

hold the Add Steam button for 5 seconds. will be displayed if you attempt to wake up a “between cycle”

locked unit and will alternate with cycle time re- maining in a “during cycle” locked unit. Repeat to unlock the controls when you are ready to operate the washer. Use this feature to reduce the likelihood of accidental operation by children.
