About Modifier Buttons

Each cycle has default settings that are selected automatically. You can also customize these settings using the cycle modifier buttons.

Note
  • The LED next to the setting lights up when the setting is selected.

  • To protect your garments, not every wash temperature, spin speed, soil level, or option is available with every cycle.

  • A chime will sound twice and the LED will not light if the desired setting is not allowed for the selected cycle.

  • Follow the fabric care labels on the garment for best results.

Temp.

Make sure the wash temperature is suitable for the type of load you are washing.

  • Press the Temp. button repeatedly to select the wash and rinse temperature combination for the selected cycle.

  • All rinses use unheated cold water.

  • Cold rinses use less energy. The actual cold rinse temperature depends on the temperature of the cold water at the faucet.

Spin

Higher spin speeds extract more water from clothes, reducing drying time and saving energy.

  • Press the Spin button repeatedly until the desired speed is selected.

  • Some fabrics, such as delicates, require a slower spin speed.

Spin Only

This option spins the load without a wash or rinse cycle. This is useful for spinning dry hand washables.

  • Press the Spin button for 3 seconds.

Soil

Adjusting the soil level setting will modify the cycle times and/or wash actions.

  • Press the Soil button repeatedly until the desired soil level is selected.

  • The Heavy soil setting may increase cycle times. The Light soil setting may decrease cycle times.
