The following options may be added to most cycles. 

This washer is designed to dispense laundry boosters such 

as oxygenated stain treaters and color-safe bleach at the 

right time in the cycle for best cleaning performance. Do not 

use laundry boosters and chlorine bleach in the same cycle.
EXTRA RINSE

This option can be used to automatically add a second rinse 

to most cycles.

NOTE: If you want to Drain and Spin only, select the Rinse & 

Spin cycle; then touch to turn off the Extra Rinse option.
DEEP CLEAN w/Steam (depending on model)

This option adds additional soak and wash time to many 

cycles to help remove tough stains, as well as a steam 

boost for added cleaning power. Deep Clean w/Steam 

uses a heater within the washer to maintain the selected 

temperature setting throughout the wash period. Deep Clean 

w/Steam may be selected as an option with other cycles.
DEEP CLEAN (depending on model)

This option provides enhanced cleaning action for tough 

stains. It will add additional agitation and soak time to the 

cycle.
AUDIO LEVEL

Use this option to adjust volume of the signal that sounds at 

the end of cycle and key pad sounds. Touch once for low, a 

second time for off, and a third time to loop back to high. A 

higher signal is helpful in removing items as soon as cycle is 

complete. Default setting is high.

The Cycle Status Lights show the progress of a cycle. At each 

stage of the process, you may notice sounds or pauses that are 

different from traditional washers.

When the START/Pause button is touched, the washer will 

first perform a self-test on the lid lock mechanism. You will 

hear a click, the basket will make a slight turn, and the lid will 

unlock briefly before locking again. 

Once the lid has locked the second time, the washer will use 

short, slow spins to estimate the load size. These sensing 

spins may take 2 to 3 minutes before water is added to the 

load and you may hear the hum of these spins. If the sensing 

light is on, then washer is working properly. You will hear the 

motor turn the basket in short pulses to thoroughly wet the 

load. The washer will then move the load briefly, pause to 

allow water to soak in to the load, and resume adding water. 

This process may repeat until the correct amount of water 

has been added for the load. You may also hear water flowing 

through the dispenser, adding detergent to the load. 

NOTE: Avoid opening lid during sensing. The sensing 

process will start over when the washer is restarted. The 

sensing light may also come on during the Wash portion of 

the cycle. This is normal. 

You will hear the motor and washplate moving the load. 

Unlike traditional washers, the load is not covered with 

water. Low water cleaning means concentrated cleaning. 

Rather than diluting detergent as done in an agitator-style 

washer, this washer delivers the detergent directly to the 

soils. The motor sounds may change at different stages 

in the cycle. The wash time is determined by the selected 

soil level.

RINSE 
You will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the 

washer rinses and moves the load. Fabric softener will be 

added if the Timed Dispensers Fabric Softener option was 

selected. 

SPIN
The washer spins the load at increasing speeds for proper 

water removal, based on the selected cycle and spin 

speed.  

DONE
Once the cycle is complete, this light will come on. 

Remove the load promptly for best results.

LID LOCKED
To allow for proper load sensing and spinning, the lid 

will lock and the Lid Locked light will turn on. This light 

indicates that the lid is locked and cannot be opened.
If you need to open the lid, touch START/Pause.  

The lid will unlock once the washer movement  

has stopped. This may take several minutes if  

the load was spinning at high speed. Touch  

and hold START/PAUSE button again for up  

to 3 seconds to restart the cycle. 
Avoid opening the lid during sensing. The sensing process 

will start over when the washer is restarted.
