Cycle Selector Control (Timer) knob

Permanent Press II cycle

This cycle includes a load-cooling process that reduces wrinkling compared to other cycles. Select up to 10 minutes of wash time. NOTE: When the timer reaches Pause, the washer will drain and pause for no more than 2 minutes while some of the wash water is drained and replaced with rinse water.

Ultra Clean cycle

Use this cycle for most loads to get between 6 and 16 minutes of wash time.

Prewash cycle

Use this cycle to get up to 4 minutes of agitation to help remove heavy soils and stains that need pretreatment. Prewash cycle should be followed by an Ultra Clean or Permanent Press II cycle with additional detergent added.

Soak cycle

Soak cycle features 4 minutes of agitation followed by an unlimited soak time to help remove heavy soils and stains that need pretreatment. You will need to reset the washer to a Spin setting to remove water. Soak cycle should be followed by an Ultra Clean, Permanent Press II, or Prewash cycle with additional detergent.

NOTE: Hot water is not recommended for soaking. It may set some stains.

When using extra detergent for heavily soiled clothes, or washing special-care items, you may find an extra rinse and spin is needed.

2.Push in the Cycle Selector Control (Timer) knob and turn it clockwise to any of the Rinse settings.

3.Pull out the Cycle Selector Control (Timer) knob. The washer fills to the selected water level, agitates, drains, and spins.

A drain and spin may help shorten drying times for some heavy fabrics or special-care items by removing excess water.

2.Set Speeds Control:

•For fast spin, use the Heavy Duty setting.

•For slow spin, use the Delicate setting.

4.Pull out the Cycle Selector Control (Timer) knob. The washer drains, then spins.

When the Cycle Control knob is set to a number and pulled out, the washer fills (to the selected load size) before agitation and timing start. The washer begins agitating immediately after filling; agitation occurs with the washer lid up or down.

During agitation, the agitator creates a continuous rollover action that provides a thorough cleaning of the wash load.

After agitation starts, the Cycle Control knob turns clockwise until it points to an OFF area and the cycle ends.

NOTE: The washer pauses briefly throughout each cycle. These pauses are normal for washer operation.
