16008373-01 SECTION 1. GENERAL INFORMATION 1-10
CYCLE SEQUENCE DEFINITIONS
NOTE: Refer to Section 2: Timer Input Charts
for information on the timing of each cycle
sequence.
BLEACH DISPENSE
In a Bleach Dispense increment, the machine
control will follow the same tumble pattern
and speed as in a Main Wash Tumble incre-
ment.
DELAY
During a Delay increment, the door Lock Wax
Motor Output, Door Locked Light Output (Se-
ries 17 and later only), Motor Torque Output,
"On" light (Series 10 to 16 only), and Water
Valve Outputs are de-energized. Note that the
Delay indicator is energized through a cam
on the timer.
EXTRA RINSE
When the user selects the Extra Rinse option,
the spin increment following the third rinse
will follow the Spin2 cycle sequence. The
Timer Motor Output will be energized 60 sec-
onds prior to the end of the spin cycle se-
quence and will remain energized to advance
the timer through the "Off" increment into the
Rinse Tumble increment.
If the Extra Rinse option is not selected, this
spin will follow the Spin3 cycle sequence and
the Timer Motor Output will be energized 30
seconds prior to the end of the final spin.
IDLE
The Idle increment follows the final spin in-
crement in each cycle. If the Door Lock Switch
Input is energized when the timer advances
into the Idle increment at the end of the cycle,
the machine control will tumble the washer
until 50 seconds after the Door Lock Switch
input is no longer energized. This allows time
for the Door Lock Wax Motor to fully retract.
At this time, the Door Lock Light Output
(washers between Series 10 and 16 only) or
the "On" Light Output (Series 17 and later
washers only) will de-energize and the End-
of-Cycle Signal will sound if the user had se-
lected the End-of-Cycle Signal option.
LIGHT WASH TUMBLE, MAIN WASH
TUMBLE, and RINSE TUMBLE
The machine control will tumble the washer
at the pattern and speed defined by the Fabric
Selection Inputs (See Cycle Review). Each
tumble will start only after the previous
tumble has completely stopped. The machine
control will reverse the tumble direction after
each pause. The machine control will con-
tinue to tumble the washer until the timer in-
puts change.
In a Light Wash Tumble or Main Wash Tumble
increment, the machine control will de-ener-
gize the line relay if the washer continues to
tumble for 29 minutes. This would only oc-
cur if the timer were to stall (See Section 1:
Timer Motor Output and Section 2: Timer
Input Chart).
PREWASH DRAIN
During a prewash drain increment, the washer
will tumble at the same speed and in the same
pattern as in the Prewash Tumble increment
for the fabric selection. The Door Lock Wax
Motor Output will be energized during this
increment (See Prewash Tumble).
PREWASH TUMBLE
When the timer is set into a Prewash Tumble
increment, the machine control will tumble
at 51 rpm in the following tumble pattern:
Cycle Tumble-Pause Pattern
Cotton/Sturdy 6 sec. - 24 sec.
Easy Care/Perm Press 6 sec. - 24 sec.
Delicates 6 sec. - 24 sec.
Hand Washables 3 sec. - 27 sec.
