SPIN SPEED
The washer drum spins at up to 1,320
RPM. This reduces drying time and
saves energy.
Press the SPIN SPEED button to select
the maximum spin speed. Some fabrics, such as
delicates, require a slower spin speed.
The Drain & Spin cycle:
The Spin Speed button also activates the Drain
& Spin cycle to drain the tub and spin clothes;
for example, if you want to remove clothes before
the cycle has ended.
To activate the DRAIN & SPIN cycle:
Press the ON/OFF button to turn on
the washer.
Press the SPIN SPEED button.
Select the desired spin speed.
NOTE: If NO SPIN is selected, the washer
will drain only.
Press the START/PAUSE button.
To Use the SteamFresh Cycle:
Turn on the washer and turn the cycle
selector knob to select the SteamFresh cycle.
Load up to 5 items and close the door.
NOTE: If there is any moisture inside the
drum, such as from a previous wash cycle,
wipe the drum dry with a towel before
adding clothes.
Press the STEAM button until the correct
number of items is shown in the display.
No other options need to be set.
Press the START/PAUSE button to start
the cycle.
After the SteamFresh cycle is complete, the
washer will tumble the clothes for up to 30
minutes to prevent rewrinkling.
After removing clothes from the SteamFresh
cycle, they may feel slightly damp. Place
clothes on a hanger for at least 10 minutes to
allow them to dry.
• The SteamFresh cycle is not recommended for
use with 100% cotton clothing.
• Remove stains from clothing before using the
SteamFresh cycle; the high heat could cause
stains to set permanently.
• Do not use SteamFresh with the following items:
wool, blankets, leather jackets, silk, wet clothes,
lingerie, foam products, or electric blankets.
• Best results are achieved when articles are of
similar size and fabric type. Do not overload.

CYCLE SETTING BUTTONS
Each cycle has preset settings that are selected
automatically. You may also customize the
settings using the cycle setting buttons. Press
the button for that option to view and select
other settings.
The washer automatically adjusts the water level
for the type and size of wash load for best results
and maximum efficiency. It may seem there is no
water inside the drum in some cycles, but this is
normal.
NOTE: To protect your garments, not every wash/
rinse temperature, spin speed, soil level, or option
is available with every cycle. See the Cycle Guide
for details.
SOIL LEVEL
Adjusts the selected cycle to allow
more time for heavily soiled clothes or
less time for lightly soiled clothes.
BEEPER
Adjusts the volume of the end-of-cycle
beeper, or turns it off.

WASH/RINSE
Selects the wash and rinse
temperature combination for the
selected cycle. Press the WASH/RINSE
button repeatedly to scroll through
available settings.
• Your washer features a heating element to boost
the hot water temperature for Extra Hot settings.
This provides improved wash performance at
normal water heater settings.
• Select the water temperature suitable for the
type of load you are washing. Follow the fabric
care label for best results.
• Warm rinses leave the loads drier than cold
rinses. Warm rinses can increase wrinkling.
• In cold climates, a warm rinse makes the load
more comfortable to handle.
• Cold rinses use less energy.
H O W TO U S E
Using the SteamFresh ™ Cycle
SteamFresh uses the power of steam alone to
quickly reduce wrinkles and odor in fabrics. It
brings new life to wrinkled clothes that have been
stored for an extended time and makes heavily
wrinkled clothes easier to iron. SteamFresh can
also be used to help reduce odors in fabrics.

STEAM CYCLES
STEAM cycles include the Allergiene TM
Sanitary, Bulky/Large, Cotton/Normal,
and Perm Press cycles. Adding the
Steam option to these cycles provides
superior cleaning performance while reducing
energy and water consumption. By using a hot
steam spray from above and cooler water below,
fabrics get the cleaning benefits of a super hot
wash, without the energy usage or potential
damage to fabrics.
To Add STEAM to a Standard Cycle:
Turn on the washer and turn the cycle
selector knob to select a cycle with the
STEAM option.
Press the STEAM button. The washer will
automatically adjust the cycle settings.
Set any other desired options.
Press the START/PAUSE button to start the
cycle. The washer will start automatically.
CAUTION:
Do not touch the door during steam cycles.
The door surface can become very hot.
Allow the door lock to release before
opening the door.
Do not attempt to override the door lock
mechanism or reach into the washer during a
steam cycle. Steam can cause severe burns.
IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT STEAM CYCLES:
• Steam may not be clearly visible during the
steam cycles. This is normal. Too much steam
could damage clothing.
• Do not use steam with delicate fabrics such as
wool, silk, or easily discolored fabrics.
• Do not touch the door.
