Start button (the lid must be closed).
Temperature
D
Select the water temperature for the washer cycle (all rinses use cold water). Always follow fabric manufacturer's
care label or instructions when laundering.
Tap Cold* uses incoming tap water, which can provide energy savings. For all other temperature selections, a
mixture of hot and cold water is used to achieve the ideal temperature for each temperature setting.
* Please note that some detergents do not fully dissolve in very cold water. If you experience this, it is
recommended you choose a setting other than Tap Cold.
Load Size
(on some models)
E
Loosely load clothes no higher than the top row of holes in the washer basket.
Precise Fill - This selection automatically provides the correct amount of water suited to the
size and type of load placed in the unit.
If you prefer to manually select the water level, select Small through Super. While Precise
Fill is best for most loads and general washing, you may want to manually select the load size for specialty items
such as bulky, lightweight comforters or pillows, where you want to ensure a larger water level is applied. Manual
load size selections should be made for wet items placed in the washer, such as soaked towels or garments.
Options
F
(on some models)
Pre-Soak 15 mins. - This option begins with a brief agitation, soaks for this specified period
of time, then moves through the rest of the cycle automatically.
2nd Rinse - When you use extra detergent or bleach to clean heavily soiled clothes, use the
2nd Rinse option to better remove additional residues.
Pre-Soak + 2nd Rinse - Turns both options on.
Off - Turns these options off.
Start
G
Press Start to begin the cycle. With the lid closed pressing Start again will pause the cycle and Status lights will blink.
To continue the cycle, close the lid and press Start again. The water fill will continue with the lid opened, except when
Precise Fill (on some models) is selected as the load size. The lid must be closed to continue filling when Precise Fill
(on some models) is selected.
If the lid is opened during the cycle, the cycle will pause and the Status lights will blink. To resume the cycle, close the
lid and press Start.
If the machine is paused for more than 24 hours, the cycle will be cancelled. To stop the cycle, turn the Cycle Selector
to the Off position. NOTE: Machine will automatically cancel and drain when water is present and the lid is left open
for 15 minutes or the unit is left in a paused state for 24 hours with the lid closed. Select cycle and press Start to begin
new cycle.
