Hot
Some cold water is added to save 

energy. This will be cooler than 

your hot water heater setting.

Warm
Some cold water will be added, so 

this will be cooler than what your 

previous washer provided.

Cool Lights
Warm water is added to assist in 

soil removal and to help dissolve 

detergents.

Cool Darks
Warm water may be added to  

assist in soil removal and to help 

dissolve detergents.

Cold
This is the temperature from your 

faucet. If your tap cold water is 

very cold, warm water may be 

added to assist in soil removal and 

help dissolve detergent.

Once you select a cycle, select the desired wash temperature 

by turning the Temperature knob to the appropriate setting 

based on your load. All rinses are tap cold.
NOTE: Always read and follow fabric care label instructions  

to avoid damage to your garments.

Press the START/Pause/Unlock button to start the wash  

cycle. Filling is delayed for several minutes while load  

balance is sensed. When the cycle has finished, the DONE  

indicator will light. Promptly remove garments after cycle  

has completed to avoid odor, reduce wrinkling, and rusting  

of metal hooks, zippers, and snaps.
Unlocking the lid to add garments
If you need to open the lid to add 1 or 2 missed garments:
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. Then close  

lid and press START/Pause/Unlock again to restart the cycle.
If lid is left open for more than 10 minutes, the water will  

pump out automatically. 
Delay in water fill
Filling is delayed for 2 to 3 minutes to check for load  

unbalance. You will hear the hum of the spin prior to filling. 

This is normal operation.

Select the desired cycle options. If you are using fabric  

softener, be sure to select Fabric Softener Added-Yes option.
