Selecting a Cycle and Time

This section describes the available wash cycles and will help you make the best cycle selections for your wash loads. Each cycle is designed for different types of fabric and soil levels.

The washer pauses briefly throughout each cycle. These pauses are normal. Refer to “Normal Washer Sounds” to learn more about the sounds you may hear during a wash cycle.

Refer to “Understanding Washer Cycles” to learn what happens during a wash cycle.

NOTE: This manual covers several different models. The washer you purchased will not have all of the cycles described.

Normal cycle

This cycle features high-speed agitation followed by a brief period of low-speed agitation for cleaning cottons and linens. High spin speeds shorten drying time. Select 6 to 15 minutes of wash time, depending on your model, for loads that are moderately or heavily soiled. For lightly soiled loads, use the shortest time setting.

Super Wash - Select the Super Wash setting to wash heavily soiled loads that need maximum soil removal. Use twice the amount of detergent recommended for a wash cycle.

Casual cycle

This cycle starts with high-speed agitation and then steps down to low-speed agitation for cleaning permanent press blends and synthetic fabrics. To minimize wrinkling, this cycle features a cool-down rinse and a low-speed final spin. Select 6 to 10 minutes of wash time, depending on your model, to clean lightly to moderately soiled loads.

Delicates cycle

This cycle features a low-speed agitation for gentle soil removal from delicate items and washable knits. Low spin speeds minimize wrinkling. Select 3 to 9 minutes of wash time, depending on your model, to clean lightly to moderately soiled loads.

Hand Washables cycle

This cycle features a series of brief, low-speed agitations and short soaks to gently clean special-care items. Low spin speeds minimize wrinkling. Wash small loads. 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 washer. Restart the washer.

Quick Wash cycle

This cycle features low-speed agitation for gentle soil removal, while providing high spin speeds to shorten drying times. Select this cycle for small loads of lightly soiled items that you need in a hurry.

Soak cycle

This cycle features brief periods of agitation and soak time to remove heavy soils and stains that need pretreatment. Use warm water when soaking laundry. Hot water can set stains. Use the amount of detergent or presoak additive recommended by the manufacturer. When the Soak cycle ends, add detergent and start a new wash cycle.
