8 OPTIONS Touch to activate additional wash options or additional features on the washer. Not all options are available on all models. A Select Delay Hrs. Touch this option to delay the start of the wash cycle by up to 12 hours. B Fresh Hold® Option The Fresh Hold® option will periodically tumble the load after the end of the cycle for up to 12 hours while the integrated fan circulates air through the washer to reduce humidity. To turn on the Fresh Hold® option, touch FRESH HOLD. If, however, the Fresh Hold® option is turned on, it will stay on for all future cycles until turned back off - the washer remembers the last on/ off status set. To turn off the Fresh Hold® option, touch FRESH HOLD. You may also activate the Fresh Hold® option without running a cycle by touching and holding POWER/ CANCEL for one second, then touching and holding Fresh Hold® option for 3 seconds, then touching and holding START for 3 seconds. To turn off the Fresh Hold® option when it is running, touch POWER/CANCEL. NOTE: The door will lock while the Fresh Hold® option is active. To cancel the option and unlock the door, touch POWER/CANCEL. C Steam for Stains The Steam for Stains option adds additional soak and wash time to many cycles to help remove tough stains as well as a steam boost for added cleaning power. An integrated heater helps to maintain optimal wash temperatures. See the "Cycle Guide" for cycles that allow the Steam for Stains option. D Extra Rinse Activate this option to add an extra rinse to most cycles. NOTE: Extra Rinse can also be used to turn on the Drum Light. Simply touch and hold EXTRA RINSE for 3 seconds. E Cycle Signal Use this option to turn on or off the signal that sounds at end of cycle. To turn off the tones that sound when a setting is touched: Touch and hold CYCLE SIGNAL for about 3 seconds. Repeat to turn them on. F Control Lock Touch and hold for 3 seconds to lock the controls to avoid unwanted changes or operation. Touch and hold 3 seconds again to unlock. For each second CONTROL LOCK is held down, the display will count down 1 second; you will see "3," then "2," then "1." You may still touch START to pause the cycle or touch POWER/ CANCEL to turn off the washer. G My Cycle If you have a favorite cycle with custom settings that you use frequently, you can use the My Cycle feature to keep your preferred settings ready to use. To save the cycle, touch and hold MY CYCLE (approximately 3 seconds) until a beep sounds and My Cycle LED is lit.
