Operating Instructions
Cycle Options, continued
ADD STEAM
Select this option to add approximately 20 min-
utes of tumbling in steam during the wash cycle.
It is recommended for heavily soiled loads to help
enhance the release of tough stains from fabrics
after initial agitation.
NOTE
Steam may not necessarily be visible inside
•
drum during a steam wash cycle.
Steam may not be present during entire steam
•
wash cycle.
IMPORTANT
If steam is selected, rinse temperatures will be
•
elevated.
If washer is paused during a steam wash
•
cycle, the door will remain locked due to higher
temperature in drum. DO NOT force open - it
will unlock upon cooling.
During a steam cycle you may notice steam
•
exiting from the rear vent of the washer - this is
normal and not cause for alarm.
SHRINK GUARD (press & hold)
Select shrink guard to help relax load after fi nal
spin by agitating, preventing shrinking and wrin-
kling.
FRESH RINSE
Use this option when additional rinsing is desired
to remove excess dirt and detergent. It is recom-
mended for heavily soiled loads or if household
members have sensitive skin.
CONTROL LOCK

hold the control lock button for 5 seconds. Re-
peat to unlock the controls when you are ready to

STATUS DISPLAY
The estimated total cycle time will be displayed
when the cycle is selected. The time may increase
if water pressure is low, oversudsing occurs or the
load becomes unbalanced. The approximate time
remaining will be displayed during the cycle.
OVERSUDS DETECTION
A situation where oversudsing has been detected
by the washer will result in the washer automati-
cally adding up to 4 extra rinses to attempt to clear
the suds. Each extra rinse the washer performs
to clear the suds will add 5 minutes to the cycle
display time. If an excessive amount of detergent
has been added and additional rinsing has not cor-
rected the issue,
TOO MUCH DETERGENT
will be
displayed.

The door can be hinged on the right or left side.
