Cycle Guide
You can use this washer to wash only, dry only, or wash and dry. This washer has a unique user interface to help you select the best
wash cycle for your load. The “What to Wash/How to Wash” layout guides you to the optimal cycle in two easy steps:
First, determine what items are in the load that you are trying to wash. Use that to guide your “What to Wash” selection. Then
determine how you want the washer to wash them and select the appropriate “How to Wash” selection. Selecting “What to Wash” will
automatically select a default “How to Wash selection,” so selecting a “How to Wash” is optional. See chart below for more details.
Settings and options shown in bold are default settings for that wash cycle. For best fabric care, choose the cycle, options, and
settings that best fit the load being washed. Always read and follow fabric care labels and laundry product instructions. Avoid tightly
packing the washer. The washer will not rinse well or spin correctly if tightly packed. Loading the drum half full or less will improve
drying performance and cycle time. Not all settings are available with each cycle, and some options cannot be used together.
