EXTRA RINSE

When the knob is in the on position, an additional rinse at the end of the COTTONS cycle is provided to more completely remove laundry additives, suds, perfumes, etc.

STEP 5

Select Cycle

To select a cycle, push the control dial in (off position) and turn it to the right (clockwise) until the pointer is at the number of minutes desired for the wash load.

IMPORTANT: For optimum fabric care, the appropriate wash and spin speed for the load type must be selected using the WASH/SPIN SPEED knob.

Control features vary by model.

COTTONS Cycle

For regular fabrics, select the cycle time and turn the Wash/Spin Speed dial to Normal/Normal.

For fabrics needing a slower spin speed to reduce wrinkling, set the control dial on Wrinkle-Freeand turn the wash/spin speed dial to Normal/Slow.

DELICATES Cycle

This cycle provides up to 12 minutes of agitation. Depending on the load, select either the Slow/Slow or Slow/Normal wash/spin speed.

SOAK Cycle

This cycle provides approximately 30 minutes of agitation and soaking to help remove stubborn dirt and stains. For more information see page 10.

STEP 6

Pull Control Dial Out to Start

You may stop the washer at any time by simply pushing the control dial in. Therefore it is possible to obtain a non-agitated soak or to shorten, skip or repeat any part of a cycle. The control dial must be pushed in (off position) when you change the setting.

Note: Do not attempt to turn the control dial counterclockwise. Damage to the timer will result.
