DISPLAY WINDOW
The display window shows the programs, options, remaining program time and fault codes. It also allows you to access the program menus and customize the wash programs. If you select Delayed Start, the window will display the number of hours selected. When you press Start/Stop, the countdown time displays.
Remaining program time – The remaining program time is calculated by the time it took the program to run last time. (Note: The first time you run a program, the display will display 1:00.) As the program progresses, the time remaining displays the hour and minutes (e.g., 1:02, which means one hour and two minutes.)
