PREWASH
Use this option to add an extra agitation and soak time
to the beginning of any cycle to break up tough stains.
WASH
You will hear the motor and washplate moving the load.
Unlike traditional washers, the load is not covered with water.
Low-water cleaning means concentrated cleaning. Rather
than diluting detergent as done in an agitator-style washer,
this washer delivers the detergent directly to the soils. The
motor sounds may change at different stages in the cycle.
The wash time is determined by the selected soil level.
RINSE
You will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the washer
rinses and moves the load. You may hear the motor turning
on briey (short hum) to move the basket while lling. Fabric
softener will be added if the Fabric Softener option was
selected. Some cycles use spray rinsing.
SPIN
The washer spins the load at increasing speeds for proper
water removal, based on the selected cycle and spin speed.
DONE
Once the cycle is complete, this light will come on. Remove
the load promptly for best results.
CYCLE STATUS LIGHTS INDICATOR
The Cycle Status Lights shows the progress of a cycle.
At each stage of the process, you may notice sounds
or pauses that are different from traditional washers.
SENSING
When the Start/Pause/Unlock button is pressed,
the washer will rst perform a self-test on the lid
lock mechanism. You will hear a click, the basket
will make a slight turn, and the lid will unlock briey
before locking again.
Once the lid has locked the second time, the washer
will use short, slow spins to estimate the load size.
These sensing spins may take 2 to 3 minutes before
water is added to the load and you may hear the hum
of these spins. If the sensing light is on, the washer
is working properly. You will hear the motor turn the
basket in short pulses to thoroughly wet the load. The
washer will then move the load briey, pause to allow
water to soak in to the load, and resume adding water.
This process may repeat until the correct amount of
water has been added for the load. You may also hear
water owing through the dispenser, adding detergent
to the load.
NOTE: Avoid opening the lid during sensing. The
sensing process will start over when the washer
is restarted. The sensing light may also come
on during the Prewash and Wash portions of the
cycle. This is normal.
