Normal cycle

The Normal cycle features high agitation and spin speeds to shorten drying time. Use this cycle for cleaning cotton and linen fabrics. Select 6, 10, or 14 minutes of wash time, depending on whether your load is lightly, moderately, or heavily soiled.

Delicates cycle

The Delicates cycle features a reduced agitation speed for gentle soil removal. Low spin speeds reduce wrinkling. Use this 8-minute cycle for cleaning lightly to moderately soiled delicate items and washable knits.

Permanent Press cycle

The Permanent Press cycle features a cool- down rinse and low spin speeds to reduce wrinkling. Use this cycle for cleaning perma- nent press and some synthetic fabrics. Select 10 or 8 minutes of wash time, de- pending on whether your wash load is moderately or lightly soiled.

NOTE: The 8-minute Permanent Press cycle is indicated on your control panel with a dot only, directly below the 10-minute cycle.
