Adjusting sound notification volume
Table of Contents
Washing machines play a brief melody upon completion of the wash program.
Press the
Signal button on the control panel in order to alter the volume of that melody and
sound notification between low, medium or high.
It can also be turned completely “off” if desired.
Unlike the image shown at the top the Signal button might be identified as
an Extra Function on some models (2nd illustration).
In such cases, hold the
*Signal button down for at least 3 seconds making sure to press the MAIN button dead
center.
Some newer more recent laundry appliance models that DO NOT feature a display window in the control
panel,
such as and WT6105CW and matching DLE6100W dryer may also
consequently NOT feature an option to deactivate the CHIMES. Terribly sorry, there is no way
around it.
For the best results, press buttons in the center, even when activating a button’s secondary function.
The buttons may not work properly if pressed too far from the center.
WashTowers
Generally on WashTowers in order turn the melody and button tones on or off, press and hold the Extra Rinse button on the washer or the Reduce Static/Wrinkle Care button on the dryer for 3 seconds.

Washer/Dryer Combo
Regrettably, not all Laundry appliances feature the option of adjusting the Signal Chimes.
Washer/Dryer combination units for example, due to real estate limitation on the control panel,
had to waive off the Signal adjustment feature to accommodate Drying cycles as shown in below
description.
Other models, such as the WM3488H* washer/dryer combination, feature the Signal
ON/OFF adjustment as a secondary function option under MAIN button called “Water Plus”.
Customers need to press and hold that button for at least 3 seconds to enable or disable Chime
Signal Sound.
There are no further adjustment for volume.
Model WM3488H*
not make provision for either adjusting the chimes volume for the appliance let alone turn it off completely.
SideKick Washers
As for any of the SideKick™ pedestal washers, regrettably, adjusting melody and button tone
Signal option is not featured on those units.
Some SideKick™ pedestal washer customers
have expressed their concerns wishing to completely disable sound notification so we have
forward such request to the factory for review in the hope of a resolution.
