Drain & Spin
Use this cycle to drain your washer or to drain and spin your
wash load. The spin speed is preset to high. If desired, you can
reduce the spin speed by selecting the speed you want from the
SPIN SPEED modifier.
NOTE: Loads of synthetics, delicate fabrics, handwashables, and
woolens should be drained with no spin or low spin to avoid
fabric stress.
To use Drain & Spin setting
Select RINSE/DRAIN & SPIN cycle.
Press the 2ND RINSE button to deselect the rinse option.
Press START.
Handwash/Delicate
Use this cycle to clean washable silk and ultra delicate garments.
(Check label instructions to make sure that garment is washable.)
This cycle gently tumbles and drains without spinning to gently
clean garments and minimize wrinkling. Garments will contain a
higher amount of water at the end of this cycle, because there is
no spinning action.
Use mesh garment bags to wash undergarments such as
underwire bras, items with strings, and small items such as
infant socks.
Powdered detergents may not dissolve well in a slow-speed
cycle. For best results, use liquid detergent for slow-speed
cycles.
You can customize your wash by adding options to your cycle
selections. You can add or change an option after starting a cycle
anytime before the selected option begins. Not all Options are
available with all cycles. Current selections will glow green. If an
option is unavailable with a selected cycle, the light will not
illuminate.
See the "Laundry Guide" section for an overview of possible
options for each Wash Cycle selection.
You can select more than one option for a cycle. Some
options cannot be added to some cycles, for example, Soak
cannot be added to the Express Wash cycle.
If an option is unavailable with a selected cycle, there will be
3 short tones, and the light for that option will not glow when
selected.
Soak
Use the Soak cycle to remove small spots or stains on fabrics.
This cycle provides up to a 30-minute soak time with warm or
cold water followed by drain. Extra water, a short tumbling phase
for equal distribution of the laundry, and a soaking time without
drum movement improve the removal of stains. Drain without
spin assures gentle treatment, even for delicate articles.
Using the Soak Cycle: The Soak cycle provides a soak time with
warm or cold water followed by drain.
1. Add detergent only to the Main Wash compartment of the
dispenser drawer.
2. Press the SOAK button.
3. Choose the desired soak temperature.
Select and hold START (approximately 1 second).

Normal Washer Sounds

As with any new product, you will hear sounds that you are not
accustomed to. You may hear various sounds when the door is
locked or unlocked, and during the washing, rinsing, or spinning
process. Between changes in wash actions, there will be
momentary pauses. You will hear water spraying and splashing
during the wash and rinse cycles. These new sounds and pauses
are part of normal washer operation. (See "Troubleshooting.")
