About the washer control settings.

Color Logic

Select the correct TEMPERATURE setting. Match the particular color below the words with the same color on the WASH/SPIN SPEED setting. Next, match the color again with the same color on the Cycle Selector knob.

Example: Washing a load of medium soiled cotton towels and sheets.

1	Choose the LOAD SIZE.
2	Choose the TEMPERATURE setting—for this load it would be the HOT COLD
	(which is a particular color).
3	Choose the WASH/SPIN SPEED setting that matches that color—for this load it
	would be the NORMAL FAST.
4	Turn the Cycle Selector knob to the area that has the same color as the
	TEMPERATURE and WASH/SPIN SPEED settings you have chosen—for this load it
	would be the COTTONS area. Turn the knob to the MEDIUM setting.

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.

Custom Care Wash/Spin Speeds

The agitator moves clothes around for a cleaner wash; the basket spins later in the cycle to release water from the load. The Wash/Spin Speed dial sets the speed of both the agitator and the basket.

Wash Speeds

With Normal Speed, the agitator will move at a high speed for the first

few minutes, then it slows down to a moderate speed. This gets your clothes clean while reducing wear on your clothing. Use for cottons, denims and play clothes.

With Gentle Speed, the agitator moves slower. Use for delicate and knit items.

With Handwash, the agitator will move slowly and will pause for periods to allow the clothes to soak. Use for items labeled handwash.

With Casuals, the agitator will agitate and then pause to soak your clothes.

It provides a gentler way to wash your wrinkle-free and permanent press items and knits.

Spin Speeds

The Fast spin speed is for normal items. Use it to remove more water from your clothes to allow them to dry faster in the dryer.

The Slow spin speed is for delicate items like sweaters and lingerie. When using Slow spin speed, clothes will be less dry than when using Fast spin speed.

Temperature

Select the water temperature for the wash and rinse cycles. Always follow fabric manufacturer’s care label or instructions when laundering.
