What it does for you: Alerts you precisely when the wash is
done, so you can get the next load started and move on to
other things.

Fresh cycles to help your clothes stay fresh until you’re able
to get to them.

SMART ABOUT ENERGY
Your Smart Washer can monitor and respond to changing energy
demand levels on the power grid.
Smart Delay (Opt-In)

the option to delay starting a wash cycle until demand levels
are lower.
