OPERATING YOUR WASHER
Regular cycle
The Regular cycle features high-speed agitation.
High spin speeds shorten drying time. Use 6 (Light)
or 12 (Normal) minutes of wash time for cleaning
sturdy cotton and linen fabrics that are moderately
or heavily soiled.
Super Wash – The Super Wash cycle automatical-
ly prewashes the laundry and advances into the
Normal cycle. (The washer does not need to be
reset after the Super Wash cycle.) Use this cycle
when washing heavily soiled loads that need maxi-
mum soil removal. Follow detergent manufacturer’s
directions for heavily soiled clothing.
Permanent Press
Use the Permanent Press cycle for cleaning
permanent press and some synthetic fabrics that
are lightly or moderately soiled. The Permanent
Press cycle starts with high agitation and then
steps to low. To reduce wrinkling, this cycle
features a cool-down rinse.
Delicate cycle
The Delicate cycle features a reduced agitation
speed for gentle soil removal. Use this 6-minute
cycle for cleaning delicate items and washable knits
that are lightly or moderately soiled.
Woollens cycle
The Woollens cycle features a reduced agitation
speed for gentle soil removal. Select cold wash
and cold rinse water when using this cycle. Please
note that the automatic temperature control feature
on this machine will blend cold and warm water to
give a wash water temperature of approximately
24°C (75°F). Use this 6-minute cycle for washable
woollens and knits that are lightly soiled.
Hand Washables cycle
The Hand Washables cycle features a brief period
of low-speed agitation and soak time (5 seconds
agitation, 30 seconds soak) which is repeated for
six minutes. Low spin speed reduces wrinkling.
Use this cycle for cleaning lightly soiled hand
washables.
Garments are labeled “Hand Wash” because:
•
The fibre or construction may be sensitive to
agitation.
•
The fabric contains sensitive dyes that may
bleed. Properly sort and then use your Hand
Washables cycle for gentle washing. Follow care
label directions for drying. Items that may shrink
should be dried flat. Block these items by gently
stretching to original measurements. Woollens
tend to shrink more the first time they are
washed.
•
If items appear to be floating due to trapped air,
stop the washer by pushing in the Cycle Control
knob. Push items down into the water. Restart
the washer.
Soak cycle
The Soak cycle features a brief period of agitation
and soak time to help remove heavy soils and
stains that need pretreatment. The soak period will
continue for 12 minutes.
•
Use warm water when soaking laundry. Hot water
can set stains.
•
Use the amount of detergent or presoak additive
recommended by the manufacturer.
•
After the Soak cycle ends, the Pre-Wash cycle
automatically begins.
Pre-Wash cycle
The Pre-Wash cycle features a brief period of high
speed agitation to help remove heavy soils and
stains that need pretreatment.
•
Use warm water for prewashing stained laundry.
Hot water can set stains.
•
After the Pre-Wash cycle ends, Super Wash
automatically begins.
