About the control settings.
Load Size
Loosely load clothes no higher than the top row of holes in the washer tub. The water level should just cover the clothes.
Custom Care Wash/Spin Speeds (on some models)
The agitator moves clothes around for a cleaner wash; the basket spins later in the cycle to release water from the load. The Wash/Spin Speed dial sets the speed of both the agitator and the basket.
With Normal wash speed, the agitator will move at a high speed for the first few minutes, then it steps down to a moderate speed. This reduces the wear on your clothing. Use for cottons, denims and play clothes.
With Gentle wash speed, the agitator moves slower. Use for delicate and knit items.
The Fast spin speed is for durable items.
The Slow spin speed is for delicate items like sweaters and lingerie. When using Slow spin speed, clothes will be less dry than when using Fast spin speed.
Temperature
Select the water temperature for the wash and rinse cycles. Always follow fabric manufacturer’s care label or instructions when laundering.
Wash Cycle
The wash cycle controls the length of the washing process.. The knob can be turned in either direction. Turning the Cycle Selector knob after starting a cycle will stop the washer and reset the cycle to the new selection. Press START to begin the new cycle selection.
REMEMBER: When choosing the cycle, the Cycle Selector knob can be pointed anywhere within the shaded range for the cycle setting.
The Cycle Indicator Lights show what stage the washer is in. The wash time is the length of the wash agitation. The 6 MIN light will remain lit during drain and spin. When the Selector knob is set to a
new cycle the Indicator Lights will flash momentarily, showing what stages the cycle will go through.
The chart below will help you match the wash cycle setting with your clothing.
