TIME AND STATUS DISPLAY

The time and status display shows the estimated time remaining, cycle progress, and door lock status.

A
ESTIMATED TIME REMAINING
When the START/PAUSE button is pressed, the
washer will automatically detect the load size for
cycles that use load sensing. The control will then
optimize the wash and rinse times, based on the se-
lected cycle, modifiers and options. When the load
size has been determined, the display will change
from dashes (- - -) to the estimated time for that
cycle. For non-load sensing cycles, the estimated
time will display when the cycle is selected.
NOTE:
• The time shown is only an estimate. For example,
the time displayed may pause for a period of time
while the machine is heating the water or balancing
the load. Under certain conditions, the machine can
pause for extended periods of time.
• Estimated time is based on normal operating
conditions. Several external factors (load size, room
temperature, incoming water temperature, etc.) also
affect the length of estimated time vs. actual time.
B LOAD-SENSING INDICATOR
At the beginning of cycles that use the load sensing
feature, the LOAD SENSING light will blink while the
load size is being measured. Once the size has been
determined, the control adjusts the cycle for
optimum performance. Estimated time remaining will
not display until the load size has been determined,
and may be different for each load.

CYCLE STATUS INDICATOR
These status LEDs illuminate to indicate which
stage of the cycle is currently running. A blinking
light indicates the active stage of the cycle. When
that stage is complete, the light will remain steady.
D
DOOR LOCK INDICATOR
Indicates that the door is locked. The washer door
will lock while the washer is operating. The door can
be unlocked by pressing START/PAUSE to pause
the washer.
NOTE:
• If the temperature in the washer is too high, the
door cannot be unlocked until the washer
has cooled.
• If the water level is too high, the door will not
unlock. To drain the water, press POWER, then press
the SPIN SPEED button without selecting a cycle.
Press START/PAUSE and the water will drain and
the clothes will spin out. Do not try to force the door
open, as it will damage the door.
E
DETERGENT AMOUNT INDICATOR
The detergent amount indicator
suggested amount of detergent for the load. Fewer
lit bars indicate a smaller load; therefore, less
detergent should be used (refer to page 18).
