twice. However, this will not immediately stop the cycle. The machine will continue with
several rinse and drain steps to ensure that all remaining bleach is rinsed from the washer.

sensing cycle. This will take approximately 3 minutes.

a) If no items are detected in the washer, it will proceed to Step 8.
NOTE: Some models have available the option to display failure codes.

PREWASH and CI.EAN lights will remain lit. The door will unlock. Remove
clothing or items in the washer.

the cycle again.
