Cycle Modifiers
About Modifier Buttons
Each cycle has default settings that are selected
automatically. You may also customize these
settings using the cycle modifier buttons.
• Repeatedly press the button for the desired
modifier until the indicator light for the desired
setting is lit.
• The washer automatically adjusts the water level
for the type and size of wash load for best results
and maximum efficiency.
• This is a high-efficiency washer, and the water
levels may be much lower than you expect. This
is normal, and cleaning/rinsing performance will
not be compromised.
NOTE
• The LED next to the setting lights up when the
setting is selected.
• To protect your garments, not every wash
temperature, spin speed, soil level, or option is
available with every cycle.
• A chime will sound twice and the LED will not
light if the desired setting is not allowed for the
selected cycle.
• Follow the fabric care labels on the garment for
best results.
Temp.
Make sure the water temperature is suitable for
the type of load you are washing.
• Press the Temp. button repeatedly to select the
wash and rinse temperature combination for the
selected cycle.
• All rinses use unheated cold water.
• Cold rinses use less energy. The actual cold rinse
temperature depends on the temperature of the
cold water at the faucet.
Spin
Higher spin speeds extract more water from
clothes, reducing drying time and saving energy.
• Press the Spin button repeatedly until the
desired speed is selected.
• Some fabrics, such as delicates, require a slower
spin speed. To protect your clothing, not all spin
speeds are available for all cycles.
Soil
Adjusting the soil level setting will modify the cycle
times and/or wash actions.
• Press the Soil button repeatedly until the desired
soil level is selected.
• The Heavy soil setting may increase cycle times.
The Light soil setting may decrease cycle times.
Special Care Features

Press the Special Care button to to select
additional features, such as Soak, Stain Care and

NOTE
• Pressing the Special Care button before
selecting a cycle will automatically default to the
Normal cycle with the Soak feature selected.
• To protect your garments, not every feature is
available with every cycle.
• If the Start/Pause button is not pressed within
60 minutes to start the cycle, the washer will
shut off and all settings will be lost.
Soak
This option provides a 30-minute presoak prior to
the start of the selected cycle. Use this option to
presoak garments to help remove difficult spots or
stains on fabrics. At the end of the presoak time,
the selected cycle will begin with the same water
used for soaking.
Stain Care
Use this option for heavily soiled loads that need
improved stain treatment. When Stain Care is
selected, the wash cycle will begin with warm
water to help prevent the setting of certain types
of stains. Then, as the cycle progresses, hot water
