Section 2. Washer Controls Overview
USER INTERFACE
SELECTIONS: (LED Washer)
The user can select the setting of several
features while in the User Interface Active
Mode or the Main Wash Cycle. The user
sets the features by pressing a key on the
keypad and the machine goes into the set
mode. If the machine is in the main wash
cycle, additional criteria may be applied
prior to changing the feature. The modes
to set a feature are:
Fabric Mode
Temperature Mode
Cycles Mode
Delay Mode
Signal Mode
Options Mode
FABRIC MODE
When a Fabrics key is pressed, the last
cycle that was not a Quick, Rinse, or Spin
cycle, will be recalled. Each Fabrics key
(Cotton/Sturdy, Wrinkle Free, Delicates,
Handwash, ) remembers the wash/rinse
temperature settings, max extract option,
extra rinse option, and wash settings.
TEMPERATURE MODE
Four discrete wash/rinse temperature
selections are provided, each with an
associated LED. Up and down arrow keys
are used to make the wash/rinse
selection. Holding down one of these
keys will advance at a rate of one level per
half second. Wash/rinse selection will not
wrap around.
CYCLES MODE
When a wash key is selected (heavy,
normal, light, quick, rinse, or spin), the
LED shall be lit and remain lit until another
wash cycle is selected. The wash LEDs
do not change during the wash cycle.
DELAY MODE
The delay start option is primarily used
when a person wants to run the washing
machine at night or some other time to
better suit the needs of the household.
The consumer can select the time delay
from 1 hour to 9 hours in increments of 1
hour. The user shall press the delay button
for each 1 hour increment. Holding down
the delay wash key will advance through
the one hour increments to off and start
over again.
The delay time (in hours) shall be shown
in left digit and an H (for hours) shall be
shown in the right digit of the display.
If delay wash has been selected, but Start/
Pause has not been pressed to initiate it,
then the Start/Pause LED will flash off and
on to indicate that it must be pressed.
The Start/Pause key must be pressed to
initiate a delay wash cycle. Once it has
been pressed, the Start/Pause LED will
stay on constant and the time will begin to
count down and the display will indicate
hours of delay remaining. When one hour
of the delay is reached, the time will be
shown in minutes in the two digits of the
display.
Note: If a regular cycle has been
running for more than five seconds, the
delay wash key will be locked out.
SIGNAL MODE
The volume level of the end of cycle
signal is adjustable. The sound ranges
from off to 3 in increments of 1. The
user will be able to select the plus (+) to
increase the volume level. The user will
be able to select the minus (-) to decrease
the volume level. When the user first
presses either of these keys, the current
end of cycle signal will be demonstrated.
Subsequent presses of either the plus or
minus button within 5 seconds of the
previous key press will increase or
decrease one level. The new end of cycle
shall sound.
