Extended Spin

Use this option to add an additional spin to any cycle to improve drying times for some heavy fabrics or special-care items by reducing excess water, which may save energy.

Button Sounds

Button sounds are used to notify you of what has been selected or to let you know when something is not available. Button sounds may be turned on or off by selecting BUTTON SOUNDS.

Save Energy Plus

The Save Energy Plus option allows you to increase your energy savings on the higher temperature cycles (Whitest Whites and Heavy Duty) while maintaining cleaning performance by lengthening the wash time by only 10 minutes.

Delay Start

To begin the wash cycle later, select DELAY START until the desired delay time (in hours) shows in the Estimated Time Remaining display, and then select START. The countdown to the wash cycle will show in the display window, and the button indicator will blink until the cycle begins.

IMPORTANT: When delaying a cycle, use only powdered detergents in the main wash compartment since liquid detergents may seep out of the compartment during Delay, before the wash cycle begins.

Cycle Signal

This signal is helpful when you are removing items from the washer as soon as it stops. Select Loud, Soft or Off.

Modifiers

Preset cycle settings of Water Temperature, Spin Speed, and Rinse Options can be changed. You can change a modifier after starting a cycle anytime before the selected Modifier begins. Not all Modifiers are available with all options and cycles. Available modifier settings will glow amber. Current selections will glow green. If an option is unavailable with a selected cycle, the light will not illuminate.

To change cycle time, select SOIL LEVEL button.

To change the water temperature, select the WASH TEMP button until the desired setting glows green.

To change the spin speed, select the SPIN SPEED button until the desired setting glows green.

Wash Temp

Select a water temperature based on the type of load you are washing. Use the warmest wash water safe for fabrics. Follow garment label instructions.

Warm rinses leave the loads dryer than cold rinses. Warm rinses increase wrinkling. In cold climates, a warm rinse makes the load more comfortable to handle. Cold rinses save energy.

Extra Hot is available only with the Sanitary cycle

When used with Stain Treat option, the water is heated gradually to assist in the removal of organic soils such as blood.

In wash water temperatures colder than 60°F (15.6°C), detergents do not dissolve well. Soils may be difficult to remove.
