Options

Use these pads to select the desired options for your wash cycle.
Save Energy Plus
The Save Energy Plus option reduces wash and rinse water
temperatures to save energy while adding about 5 minutes of
wash time to maintain performance. This option must be selected
prior to the start of the cycle. The Save Energy Plus option is
available in only the Heavy Duty and Whitest Whites cycles.
2nd Rinse
A 2nd rinse can be used to aid in the removal of detergent or
bleach residue from garments. This option provides an additional
rinse with the same water temperature as the first rinse. This is
the default rinse setting for the Whitest Whites cycle. Fabric
softener will be dispensed during the 2nd Rinse.
Stain Treat (Catalyst ® Cleaning Action)
This option provides enhanced cleaning action for tough stains.
The Heavy Duty cycle automatically includes Stain Treat.
Choosing Stain Treat will add approximately 5 minutes to a cycle.
Stain Treat should be started on a dry load only and should not
be selected after the tub has started filling with water.
Stain Treat may be selected as an option with other cycles. See
table for details.

I When Auto Soak is selected, the washer saturates the load
with water and detergent then pauses to allow the detergent
to work on soils. The pause is followed by a slow-speed spin.
The washer pauses and spins six times before advancing to
the desired wash cycle. Auto Soak adds approximately
12 minutes to the wash cycle.
I When Prewash is selected, the washer fills to the desired
water level. It then alternates between 1 minute of wash
action and a 1-minute pause period three consecutive times
with an extended pause to end the cycle. When Prewash is
complete, the washer advances to the selected wash cycle.
The Prewash option extends your wash time by
approximately 11 minutes.
Cycle Signal Volume
The End of Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the
wash cycle is finished. This signal is helpful when you are
removing items from the washer as soon as it stops. Select Loud
or Soft. The End of Cycle Signal is off when neither option is lit.

Normal Sounds

Your new washer may make sounds your old one didn't. Because
the sounds might be unfamiliar, you may be concerned about
them. These sounds may be normal.
During washing
If you select the Stain Treat option, you will hear a spin/spray
noise at the start of the cycle.
During drain
If water is drained quickly from your washer (depending on your
installation), you may hear air being pulled through the pump
during the end of draining.
During wash and spin
This washer does not have a transmission. The motor provides
direct drive for wash and spin. You will hear sounds that are
different from those of a conventional washer.
