Lid Lock

To allow for higher spin speeds, the lid will lock and the

Lid Locked light will turn on. When this light is lit, the

lid is locked and cannot be opened. When this light is

blinking, the washer is paused. When this light is off,

the lid can be opened. After a cycle is started, water will

enter the washer and then the lid will lock. If you need to

open the lid to add a garment after this point, you must

press START/Pause and wait for the lid to unlock. The

lid will only unlock after washer movement has stopped.

Depending on when in the cycle you try to pause, it may

take several seconds to several minutes for the lid to

unlock. Press START/Pause to resume the cycle.

Sensing

This washer will perform a series of spins to check

for load balance. During this time, a series of clicks

and a whirring noise signal that sensing technology

is determining if there is an off-balance load.

IMPORTANT:

• After the washer basket lls to the selected water level, the lid must be closed before the wash cycle can start.

If lling stops with the lid open, close lid and press START button.

• Fabric Softener option must be selected to ensure fabric softener dispenses at the correct time.

Sounds

At different stages of the wash cycle, you may hear

sounds and pauses that are different from those of your

previous washer. There will be different kinds of humming

and whirring sounds as the agitator tests for load balance

or moves the load. And, sometimes, you may hear nothing

at all as the washer allows time for clothes to soak.

Spray Rinse

Select cycles default to a spray rinse. During these cycles,

you will hear water enter the washer as the tub spins,

allowing the rinse water to penetrate clothes. Check the

“Cycle Guide” for details.

WHAT’S NEW UNDER THE LID?

Your new washer will operate differently than your past agitator-style washer.
