Cycles

Cycles can be selected by turning the Cycle control knob to the desired cycle. Each cycle is designed for different types of fabric and soil levels.

■Each cycle has a preset Soil Level (cycle time), Water Temperature, and Spin Speed. The preset settings provide the recommended fabric care for the selected cycle.

■The preset settings can be changed anytime before HOLD TO START is pressed. (To change settings after the cycle has started, press PAUSE/CANCEL, then select the desired settings. Press HOLD TO START to continue the cycle.)

Whitest Whites

This cycle is especially designed for cleaning loads of soiled white fabrics with the addition of bleach. Hot washing temperatures assure optimal bleach activity. An additional rinse provides optimal rinse performance to avoid chlorine residues on your laundry. This cycle combines fast speed tumbling, longer wash time and high-speed spin to shorten drying times.

Heavy Duty

Use this cycle to wash loads of sturdy, colorfast fabrics and normally soiled garments. This cycle combines fast speed tumbling, longer wash time, and high speed spin to shorten drying times.

Normal/Casual

Use this cycle to wash loads of no-iron fabrics, such as sport shirts, blouses, casual business clothes, permanent press blends, cottons and linens, and synthetic fabrics. This cycle combines medium speed tumbling, high speed spin, and a load cooling process to reduce wrinkling.

Delicate

Use this cycle to wash sheer fabrics and lingerie. This cycle combines low speed tumbling and low speed spin for gentle fabric care.

Hand Washables

Use this cycle to clean hand washable and special-care garments. Similar to the way garments are hand washed in a sink, the wash action of this cycle combines periods of low speed tumbling and soaking. Low speed spin reduces wrinkling.

Soak

Use the Soak cycle to remove small spots of set-in stains on fabrics. This cycle provides a soak time with warm or cold water followed by drain. Extra water, a short tumbling phase for equal distribution of the laundry, and a soaking time without drum movement, improve the removal of set-in stains. Drain without spin assures gentle treatment, even for delicate articles.

Rinse/Spin

Use this cycle to get a rinse and spin only. This cycle combines fast speed tumbling and high speed spin. If desired, you can reduce the spin speed by selecting the speed you want from the SPIN SPEED modifier.

A Rinse/Spin cycle is useful for

■Loads that need rinsing only.

■Adding fabric softener to a load.

Drain/Spin

Use this cycle to drain your washer or to drain and spin your wash load. The spin speed is preset to high. If desired, you can reduce the spin speed by selecting the speed you want from the SPIN SPEED modifier.

NOTE: Loads of synthetics, delicate fabrics, handwashables, and woolens should be drained with no spin or low spin speed to avoid fabric stress.

Normal Washer Sounds

As with any new product, you will hear sounds that you are not accustomed to. You may hear various sounds when the door is locked and unlocked, and during the washing, rinsing, and spinning process.

These new sounds and pauses are part of normal washer operation.
