WASHER CYCLE GUIDE
Not all cycles or options are available on all models. Refer to the cycle control knob on your washer.
Wash temperatures are selected using the Wash Temperature control knob.
For best performance:
• Choose the cycle that best fits the load being washed.
• Use Prewash for heavily soiled clothing.
• Do not leave the washer lid open unattended once the washer
has started to fill.
