Energy and estimated local cost by cycle

Using the August 2026 U.S. residential average. ZIP lookup uses a state average; your bill rate is more precise.

When will it finish?

Uses the upper published time. Sensing and selected options can still move the finish time.

Why the number can move

Load sensing, water temperature, an extra rinse or presoak, and load balance can change the wash time.

Check the exact display. The full model number and selected options matter. Consult your current manual if your panel labels differ from this table.
