Start/Pause
Press Start to begin the cycle. NOTE: The lid must be closed for the washer to start the cycle. If the lid is closed, the lid will lock
only during spin portions of the cycle.
Pressing Pause will unlock the lid (if locked at that time), pause the cycle and the Pause indicator light will blink.
To continue the cycle, press Start again. If water remains in the machine, select the Drain & Spin cycle to drain basket and spin
water out of the washer basket.
NOTE: Machine will automatically cancel and drain when water is present and the lid is left
open for 15 minutes or the unit is left in a paused state for 24 hours with the lid closed. Select cycle and press Start to begin
new cycle.
Cycle Status Lights
Shows whether the washer is in the Fill, Soak, Wash, Rinse or Spin portion of the cycle.
If an out-of-balance condition is detected by the washer, the Spin light will blink during the remaining portion of the cycle
and will stay illuminated for a short time after cycle completion. When this occurs, the washer is taking actions to correct the
out-of-balance condition and complete the cycle normally. In some cases, the washer may not be able to balance the load
and spin up to full speed. If you notice the load is more wet than normal at the end of the cycle, redistribute the load evenly
in the wash basket and run a Drain & Spin cycle.
