Sanitized
This washer has a Sanitize water temperature that is certified
by NSF International, an independent thir
d-party testing and
certification organization. The certification verifies that the
sanitizing cycle reduces 99.9% of bacteria typically found
on clothing, bedding, and towels, and there is no carryover
of bacteria between loads after the cycle is complete.
Certified to Sanitize
If the “Sanitize” wash temperature was selected, when the wash
cycle is complet
e, the DONE status light will illuminate, the door
unlocks, and the wash load can be removed from the washer.
The washer powers down automatically 60 minutes after the
cycle is complete and the DONE status light turns off. Only cycles
with sanitize wash temperature selected have been designed to
meet the requirements of NSF Protocol P172 for Sanitizing
Efficacy.
Controls Lock/Unlock
The Controls Lock avoids unintended use of the washer. You can
also use the control lock feature to avoid unintended cycle or
option changes during a cycle. When Controls Lock is lit, all
buttons are disabled except for Pause/Cancel and Start. You can
loc
k the controls while the washer is operating.
To lock the controls
Press and hold CONTROLS LOCK/UNLOCK for 3 seconds after the
cyc
le starts, or when the washer is turned off.
The status light next to the CONTROLS LOCK/UNLOCK button
will glow.
To unlock the controls
Press and hold CONTROLS LOCK/UNLOCK for 3 seconds until
the status light turns off.
NOTE:
To lock or unlock the controls when the washer is off,
press and hold CONTROLS LOCK/UNLOCK for 3 seconds.
Door Locked
When the status light glows, the door is locked.
Sensing/Revising Estimated Time
The cycle times vary automatically based on your water pressure,
water temperature, detergent, and clothes load.
The washer will automatically sense the progress in the cycle and
adjus
t the Estimated Time Remaining display. While the washer is
sensing, the estimated time will flash and the Sensing status light
will glow. When the sensing is complete, the flashing stops, the
status light goes off, and the Estimated Time Remaining display
is updated.
The cycle time will be extended if oversudsing occurs or the load
is unbalanced. The SUD routine removes extra suds and assures
pr
oper rinsing of your garments. See “Troubleshooting.” During
the unbalance routine, the time di
splayed may pause until this
activity is complete, then resume with the remainder of the cycle.
Cycles
Cycles can be selected by turning the Cycle Control knob to the
desired cycle. Each cycle is designed for different types of fabric
and soil levels. The modifier indicator lights, on the right-hand
side of the panel, will change as cycl
es are selected.
■ Each cycle has a preset Soil Level (estimated cycle time),
Water Temperature, and Spin Speed, and may have preset
options
. The preset settings provide the recommended fabric
care for the selected cycle.
■
The preset settings will glow green to show the preselected
options and modifiers, and
can be changed anytime before
START is pressed. Not all options and modifiers are available
with all cycles. Available selections glow amber. (To change
settings after the cycle has started, press PAUSE/CANCEL
once, then select the desired settings. Press START to continue
the cycle.)
■ Powdered detergents may not dissolve well in a slow-speed
cycle. For best results, use liquid detergent in slow-speed
cycles.
Preset cycle settings
Each cycle has a preset Soil Level (cycle time), Water Temperature,
and Spin Speed. The preset settings provide the recommended
fabric care for the selected cycle. See chart.
