I ESTIMATED TIME REMAINING
When the START/PAUSE is pressed, the washer
automatically detects the wash load (weight) and
optimizes the washing time, based on the selected cycle
and options. The display will then indicate the estimated
time remaining for the selected wash cycle.

displayed may pause lor a period of time while the
machine is heating the water or balancing the load.
Under certain conditions, the machine can pause lor
extended periods of time.
• Estimated time is based on normal operating conditions.
Several external factors (load size, room temperature,
incoming water temperature, etc.) also affect the length
of estimated time ve. actual time.
