dispenser. DO NOT pour fabric softener directly onto
wash load.

results, DO NOT overload.

it clockwise to the desired setting. Pull out the knob to
restart the washer.

Cycle Selection
Push in and turn the Cycle Selector knob clockwise to
the desired cycle. For best results, follow the washing
instructions on the fabric care labels.
The Whites, Colors and Knits/Delicates cycles progress
through wash agitation, drain and spin with a spray rinse,
rinse agitation, and a spray rinse during the final spin.
Whites Cycle
This cycle provides up to 15 minutes of normal agitation and
a fast spin for most fabrics.
Power Spin
provides 12 minutes of spin for maximum
removal of water. This conserves energy by reducing
drying time.
Extra Rinse Cycle
Use the Extra Rinse cycle after any complete wash cycle
when an additional deep rinse may be needed to remove
excess detergent and soil. It provides 3 minutes of rinse
agitation in cold water, followed by a spray rinse at the
selected rinse water temperature during spin.
If desired, add liquid fabric softener to the water (not the
fabric softener dispenser) or use a softener sheet in the
dryer. DO NOT pour fabric softener directly onto the load.
Colors Cycle
This cycle provides up to 12 minutes of normal agitation
and a fast spin for cottons and blends with a no-iron
finish. A cool down spray rinse helps reduce wrinkling.
Select the
Perm Press Prewash
setting to help
loosen soil and remove stains before washing. Add the
recommended amount of detergent and other
laundry products desired to tub. Add load. Select a cold
water rinse and appropriate load size. Load will agitate 4
minutes, drain and spin. Follow Perm Press Prewash with a
complete Colors cycle and a half dose of detergent.
