When washing bulky items such as blankets and comforters, use the HANDWASH/DELICATE cycle. The cycle includes 12 minutes of gentle agitation to clean items delicately and thoroughly. The extra rinse cycle may be selected to ensure complete removal of soap residue. A final spin extracts the moisture at a low speed to maintain the load’s balance and minimize wear to the articles.
