Normal
Use this cycle for normally soiled cottons and mixed fabric loads.
Cycle combines high-speed wash action and high-speed spin.
Casual/Perm Press
Use this cycle to wash loads of no-iron fabrics such as sport
shirts, blouses, casual business clothes, permanent press and
blends. This cycle uses medium-speed wash action, a low-speed
spin and a cool down process to reduce wrinkling.
Colors/Darks
Use this cycle for lightly soiled, dark or highly dyed natural fabrics
such as cotton that may be susceptible to dye loss. Cycle uses
low to medium-speed wash action and high-speed spin. For best
results use cold or warm water.
Quick Wash
Use this cycle to wash small, lightly soiled loads that are needed
in a hurry. This short cycle combines high-speed wash action and
high-speed spin for the best cleaning and shortened dry times.
Wool
This cycle combines low-speed wash and low-
speed spin action to clean items labeled as
“Machine Washable Wool” on the garment care
label. Presoak and Deep Clean options are not
available in this cycle.
Delicate/Handwash
Use this cycle to wash lightly soiled garments indicating
“Machine Washable Silks” or “Gentle” cycle on the care label.
This cycle uses intermittent low speed wash action and low-
speed spin for the gentlest fabric care with less wrinkling.
Garments are labeled “Hand Wash” because:
■
The fiber construction may be sensitive to wash action.
■
The fabric contains sensitive dyes that may bleed.
Soak
This cycle is preset for a 41-minute cycle and soak time can be
adjusted according to your needs by selecting Soil Level. After
the selected soak period has ended, the washer will drain but
does not spin the load.
NOTE: Automatic bleach dispensing is not part of the soak cycle.
Rinse & Spin
Use this option to get a deep rinse followed by a high-speed
spin. The time display will include an estimate of how long it will
take to fill and drain the washer.
When to use Rinse & Spin:
■
For loads that need rinsing only.
■
For completing a cycle after the power has been off.
To use or change Rinse & Spin setting:
1. Turn knob to RINSE & SPIN until the Rinse & Spin indicator
light glows.
2. Press START.
Drain & Spin
An extra drain and spin may help shorten drying times for some
heavy fabrics or special-care items. Drain & Spin may also be
used for draining the washer after canceling a cycle or
completing a cycle after a power failure.
To use or change Drain & Spin setting:
1. Turn knob to DRAIN & SPIN until the Drain & Spin indicator
light glows.
2. Press START.
Clean Washer
Use the Clean Washer cycle once a month to keep the inside of
your washer fresh and clean. This cycle uses a higher water level
in combination with liquid chlorine bleach to thoroughly clean the
inside of your washing machine. See “Cleaning Your Washer.”
IMPORTANT: Do not add detergent to this cleaning cycle. Use
only liquid chlorine bleach. Do not place garments or other items
in the washer during the Clean Washer cycle. Use this cycle with
an empty wash tub.
Modifiers
Modifiers allow you to further customize your cycles and save
energy.
Soil Level
Soil level (wash time) is preset for each wash cycle. See “Preset
Cycle Settings” in “Cycles.” As you press the Soil Level pad, the
cycle time (minutes) will increase or decrease in the Estimated
Time Remaining display and a different wash time will appear. To
get the minimum wash time, press the pad until the indicator light
next to Light illuminates. This is the shortest wash time available
for that cycle.
■
For most loads, use the time recommended in the preset
cycle settings.
■
For heavy soil and sturdy fabrics, press Soil Level to select
more wash time, if needed.
■
For light soil and delicate fabrics, press Soil Level to select
less wash time, if needed.
Spin Speed
This washer automatically selects the spin speed based on the
cycle selected. The preset speeds can be changed. Spin speeds
may vary by cycle.
