Load Size

Loosely load clothes no higher than the top row of holes in the washer tub. The water level should just cover
the clothes. Adjust the load size accordingly. 

Wash Cycle

The wash cycle controls the length of the washing process and the wash temperature. You can choose a cooler
wash temperature no matter what color of fabric you are washing. Always follow the instructions on the fabric
care label when laundering. The chart below will help you match the wash cycle setting with your clothing.

WHITES

For heavy to lightly soiled cottons, household linens, work and play clothes.

HOT WASH

COLORS

For wrinkle-free and permanent press items, knits and cottons.

WARM WASH

CASUALS

For wrinkle-free and permanent press items, and knits.

WARM WASH

This cycle agitates and then pauses to soak your clothes, simulating hand washing.

PULSE AGITATE

The 

HEAVY

cycle has three agitate/pause cycles to clean your heavily soiled items.

The 

MEDIUM

cycle has two agitate/pause cycles, and the 

LIGHT

cycle has one agitate/pause cycle.

The washer will fill with water to the chosen level when the washer is started in any part of the 

CASUALS

cycle.

If the washer is started in the pause/soak portion of the cycle, then the washer will complete this
soak before it begins to agitate. This is normal.

DARK COLORS

For non-colorfast cottons and blends and items that are labeled cold wash by the fabric manufacturer.

COLD WASH
