60 minutes after the cycle is complete and the CLOTHES CLEAN light goes off.

Locking controls

The Control Lock prevents unintended use of the washer. You can also use the control lock feature to prevent unintended cycle or option changes during a cycle. When CONTROL LOCKED is lit, all buttons are disabled except for STOP and START. You can lock the controls while the washer is operating.

Select and hold CYCLE SIGNAL for 3 seconds until the status light turns off.

Door Locked

Estimated Time Remaining

The cycle times vary automatically based on your water pressure, water temperature, detergent, and clothes load. The cycle time will be extended if oversudsing occurs or the load is unbalanced. The SUD routine removes extra suds and assures proper rinsing of your garments. See “Troubleshooting.” During the unbalance routine the time displayed may pause until this activity is complete, then resume with the remainder of the cycle.

Wash Cycles

Choose Wash Cycles by turning the selector knob. The cycle indicator light will glow when selected. Each cycle is designed for different types of fabric and soil levels. The modifier indicator lights, on the right-hand side of the panel, will change as cycles are selected.

Each cycle has a preset Soil Level (estimated cycle time), Water Temperature and Spin Speed and may have preset Options. The preset settings provide the recommended fabric care for the selected cycle.

The preset settings will glow green to show the preselected options and modifiers, and can be changed anytime before START is selected. Not all Options and Modifiers are available with all cycles. Available modifier selections will glow amber. (To change settings after the cycle has started, select STOP once, then select the desired settings. Select and hold START [for approximately 1 second] to continue the cycle.)

Preset cycle settings

Each cycle has a preset Cycle Time, Water Temp, and Spin Speed. The preset settings provide the recommended fabric care for the selected cycle. See chart.
