LID LOCK
To allow for proper load sensing and spinning, the lid will lock and the Lid Lock light will turn on. This light indicates that the lid is locked and cannot be opened.
If you need to open the lid, press Start/Pause/ Unlock. The lid will unlock once the washer movement has stopped. This may take several minutes if the load was spinning at high speed. Press Start/Pause/ Unlock again to resume the cycle.
EXTRA RINSE
This option can be used to automatically add a second rinse to most cycles.
Button Sounds:
Press and hold Extra Rinse for 3 seconds to turn the button sounds on or off.
FABRIC SOFTENER
This option must be selected if using fabric softener during a cycle. It ensures that fabric softener is added at the correct time in the rinse for even distribution.

CYCLE MODIFIERS
When you select a cycle, its default modifiers will light up. Not all cycles, options, and modifiers are available on all models.
TEMP LEVEL
Temperature Control senses and maintains uniform water temperatures by regulating incoming hot and cold water.
Select a wash temperature based on the type of fabric and soils being washed. For best results and following the garment label instructions, use the warmest wash water safe for your fabric.
• Warm and hot water may be cooler than what your previous washer provided.
•Even in a Cool water wash, some warm water may be added to the washer to maintain a minimum temperature.
SOIL LEVEL
Soil level (wash time) is preset for each wash cycle.
For most loads, use the soil level that is preset with
the cycle you have chosen. For heavily soiled and sturdy fabrics, press Soil Level to select more wash time,
if needed. For lightly soiled and delicate fabrics, press Soil Level to select less wash time, if needed. Lower soil level setting will help reduce tangling and wrinkling.
SPIN SPEED
This washer automatically selects the spin speed based on the cycle selected. The preset speeds can be changed. Not all spin speeds are available with all cycles.
•Faster spin speeds mean shorter dry times, but may increase wrinkling in your load.
•Slower spin speeds mean less wrinkling, but will leave your load more damp.
You may also add or remove options for each cycle. Not all options can be used with all cycles, and some are preset to work with certain cycles.
5CYCLE STATUS LIGHTS INDICATOR
The Cycle Status Lights shows the progress of a cycle. At each stage of the process, you may notice sounds or pauses that are different from traditional washers.
SENSING 
When the START button is pressed, the washer will first perform a
Once the lid has locked the second time, the washer will slowly spin the dry load to estimate the load size, and begin adding water. The washer will then move the load briefly, pause to allow water to soak in to the load, and resume adding water. This process may repeat until the correct amount of water has been added for the load. You may also hear water flowing through the dispenser, adding detergent to the load.
NOTE: The sensing light may also come on during the Wash portions of the cycle. This is normal.
