Soil Level

Changing the SOIL LEVEL increases or decreases the wash time to remove different amounts
of soil.
To change the SOIL LEVEL, press the SOIL LEVEL button until you have reached the desired
setting. You can choose between Extra Light, Light, Normal or Heavy soil.
Spin Speed
4
Changing the SPIN SPEED changes the final spin speed of the cycles. Always follow the fabric
manufacturer's care label when changing the SPIN SPEED.
To change the SPIN SPEED, press the SPIN SPEED button until you have reached the desired
setting. Higher spin speeds are not available on certain cycles, such as Delicates.
Higher spin speeds remove more water from the clothes and will help reduce dry time, but may
also increase the possibility of setting wrinkles on some fabrics.
Wash Temp
5
Adjust to select the proper water temperature for the wash cycle. The prewash and rinse water is
always cold to help reduce energy usage and reduce setting of stains and wrinkles.
Follow the fabric manufacturer's care label when selecting the wash temperature.
To change the wash temperature, press the WASH TEMP button until you have reached the desired
setting. The Sanitized wash temperature is not available on certain cycles, such as Delicates.
When selecting the Sanitize wash temperature, the washer increases the water temperature to
sanitize and kill more than 99% of many common bacteria found in home laundry. The sanitize
wash temperature is only available on Stain Wash and Whites Wash cycles. For best results, select
the heavy soil setting when using the Sanitize wash temperature setting.
NOTE: The first 10 seconds of the wash fill is always cold. This feature assists in conditioning the fabric and
preventing stains from setting on garments.
START/PAUSE

Press to start a wash cycle. If the washer is running, pressing it once will pause the washer and
unlock the door. Press again to restart the wash cycle.
