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 t 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 1,200 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.
The Drain & Spin cycle:
The Spin Speed button also activates the Drain
& Spin cycle to drain the tub and spin clothes;
for example, if you want to remove clothes before
the cycle has ended.
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.
