Options

You can customize your wash by adding OP- TIONS to your cycle selections. You can add or change an option after starting a cycle anytime before the selected option begins.

See the “Laundry Guide” for an overview of possible options for each Wash Cycle selec- tion.

You can select more than one option for a cycle. Some options cannot be added to some cycles. See Tables on previous page.

If an option is available with a selected cycle, the light for that option will glow when selected.

If an option is unavailable with a selected cycle, there will be a short tone and the light for that option will not glow when selected.

Prewash

Use this option for heavily soiled loads that need pretreatment. This option adds a 15 minute prewash and drain to the main wash cycle.

Add detergent to the Prewash and Main Wash compartments of the Dispenser Drawer.

When using Prewash, do not use liquid de- tergent in the Main Wash compartment. Use powdered detergent for the main wash cycle.

NOTE: The Prewash and Auto Soak options can- not be selected in the same cycle.

Auto Soak

Use the Auto Soak option for loads of heavily soiled cotton, linen, polyester or nylon with set- in stains. During Auto Soak, water will be added to the basket and the laundry will be equally distributed by a short tumbling phase. Laundry will then be soaked in phases without basket movement. After soaking, the washer drains without spinning.

Added to a Wash Cycle: A 30 minute soak time is added to the main wash cycle to im- prove removal of set-in stains.

1.Add detergent to both the Prewash and Main Wash compartments of the Dispenser

Drawer.

NOTE: The Auto Soak and Prewash options cannot be selected in the same cycle. Use powdered detergent for the main wash cycle because liquid detergent will seep into the washer during Auto Soak.

2.Select a Wash Cycle.

3.Select AUTO SOAK.

NOTE: For cycles with hot wash temperatures, the soak temperature will be set to warm; otherwise, the soak temperature will be the same as the wash temperature.

4.Select and hold START (approximately 1 second). After soaking, the washer drains and the wash cycle starts.
