CYCLE SETTING BUTTONS
Each cycle has preset settings that are selected
automatically. You may also customize the settings
using the cycle setting buttons. Press the button
for that setting until the indicator light for the
desired value is lit.
The washer automatically adjusts the water level
for the type and size of wash load for best results
and maximum efficiency. It may seem there is no
water inside the drum in some cycles, but this is
normal.
NOTE: To protect your garments, not every wash/
rinse temperature, spin speed, soil level, or option
is available with every cycle. See the Cycle Guide
for details.
WASH/RINSE
Selects the wash and rinse temperature
combination for the selected cycle.
Press the WASH/ RINSE button until the
indicator light for the desired setting is lit.
• Your washer features a heating element to boost
the hot water temperature for Extra Hot settings.
This provides improved wash performance at
normal water heater settings.
• Select the water temperature suitable for the
type of load you are washing. Follow the fabric
care label for best results.
• Warm rinses are regulated at approximately 86°F
(30°C).
• Warm rinses leave the loads drier than cold
rinses. Warm rinses can increase wrinkling.
• In cold climates, a warm rinse makes the load
more comfortable to handle.
• Cold rinses use less energy, and the rinse
temperature depends on the cold water at the
faucet.

SPIN SPEED
The washer drum spins at up to 1,100
RPM.
This extracts more water from clothes,
reducing drying time and saving
energy.
Press the SPIN SPEED button until the indicator
light for the desired setting is lit. Some fabrics,
such as delicates, require a slower spin speed.
SOIL LEVEL
Adjusts the selected cycle to allow
more time for heavily soiled clothes
or less time for lightly soiled clothes.
Press the SOIL LEVEL button until the
indicator light for the desired setting is lit.
SIGNAL
Adjusts the end-of-cycle signal volume
or turns it off.
