I went to see a guy about a dryer... and brought these home too!

Save Time cuts cycle time by half.
Soak option, adds a 2-hr soak period toward end of the agitated wash period, followed by a couple mins more agitation.
Save Time cuts the soak to 1 hr.
It can also be manually advanced to drain for a shorter soak as desired.
Drip Dry option pauses before the final spin (after drain), beeps for user attention to remove any garments for drip drying, then press Start to continue with the spin.
Choice of two speeds for the final spin on the "normal" cycle. I'm not sure if the Lifecycles follow this option or are hardwired for specific speeds.
Comforter cycle for sure is always low.
Handwash is always low.
Creasables is low by default or medium by another option.
Woolens is medium.
Fast / 1,000 RPM in fact reaches 1,010 RPM.
Auto-sensing or manual water level choices.
Auto-sensing is not fully variable, it follows the five levels.
Two Lifecycles do not auto-sense, are programmed for specific levels but can be adjusted ad-hoc. Comforter defaults to high. Shoes defaults to medium/low.
Traditional Wash eliminates the Eco Active wash phase, fills directly for an agitated wash at the selected temperature.
Handwash is a traditional wash by default.
Some Lifecycles also do not run Eco Active.
The next screens are secondary options that control over-all machine functioning.
Wash Temp Adjust modifies the ATC target temps by +/- 2°C, 4°C, or 6°C. All temps are changed by the same factor.
Auto Water Level Adjust changes the sensitivity of the sensing function.
Four default rinse options for the "normal" cycle.
Single Deep and Double Deep eliminates sprays in the first spin.
Double Deep there's no spin before the first rinse.
Handwash, Creasables, and some of the Lifecycles (Comforter, Shoes, Muddy, Allergy, Beach Gear, and possibly Allergy) run a double deep rinse.
Creasables spin speed choices. Slow is the default.
Auto off-balance recovery. The machine tries to spin three times (each attempt extracts some water which helps lessen the off-balance condition). If the OOB switch triggers the third time, it refills and agitates to distribute the load, then tries three more times. It stops and beeps for help if spin still fails.
Off by default to eliminate use of the extra water.
Wow I had no idea one could micro manage that washer like that! Love that! Now I want one!
End-of-cycle signal options.
5 is default.
Reset all options to factory default.
The next screens are programmed Lifecycle choices.
Favorite allows setting a custom cycle with a specific combination of options -- water level, temp, soak, time saver, traditional wash, etc. ... even starting at a specific cycle position.
Adjust the options as desired, call up the Lifecycle / Favorite screen and select Remember Settings.
Then run the cycle at any time via Lifecycle / Favorite / Use Favorite.
Diaper Rinse = drain, brief spin, cold agitated rinse (Medium Wash agitation profile, adjustable by soil level), spin with sprays, final spin.
Comforter = Warm traditional wash, high water level, Easy Wash agitation profile, two deep rinses, slow spin. Pauses before the final spin, prompts the user to push the item down below medium/high water level and press Start to continue. This is to protect a bulky item that has billow-up from damage during spin.
Allergy = hot Eco Active wash, warm/hot agitated wash, extra rinses (double deep and sprays in the final spin).
Sweaty = warm/hot Eco Active and agitated wash.
Muddy = cold prewash, cold Eco Active, cold agitated wash, double deep rinse, spin sprays.
Sports Shoes = warm/cold traditional wash at medium/low water level with a 15-min soak period, double deep rinse. Also useful for children's stuffed toys.
Beach Gear = cold Eco Active, cold agitated wash, double rinse.
Chocolate = warm/hot Eco Active, warm agitated wash with a soak period.
Tomato = warm/hot Eco Active, warm agitated wash with soak periods.
Blood/Grass = cold Eco Active, warm agitated wash.
Fruit/Wine = warm/hot Eco Active, warm agitated wash.
Tub Clean = hot Eco Active, hot agitated wash at high water level, 2-hr soak, double deep rinse, short spin.
Max Wash = runs maximum agitation profile with what is otherwise a "normal" cycle sequence. The soil level is still selectable to vary the agitation profile a little within the maximum range.
Yes, there's more.
Diagnostic Screens.
Fault Status reports the last "fatal" fault that occurred.
