Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A laundry appliance (12) includes a body (30) that houses a motor (32) that selectively operates a drum (34) for processing laundry, wherein the body (30) includes an aperture (36) for selectively accessing the drum (34). A door panel (38) provides selective access to the aperture (36). A controller (44) is configured to operate at least the motor (32). A user interface (10) is in communication with the controller (44) for selecting a laundry-processing operation to be performed. An outer panel (14) at least partially conceals the body (30) from view. An outer selector (48) is positioned proximate the outer panel (14), wherein the outer selector (48) is in communication with the controller (44) via the user interface (10).
