5.Close the washer lid.

6.Turn the Water Level selector to the correct setting for your wash load and the type of fabric being washed.

Choose a water level that allows the load to move freely for best fabric care. See "Loading."

You may change to a higher level setting after the washer has started filling by turning the knob to a different setting.

7.Set the Water Temperature selector to the correct setting for the type of fabric and soils being washed. Use the warmest water safe for fabric. Follow garment label instructions.

NOTE: In wash water temperatures colder than 70°F (21°C), detergents do not dissolve well. Soils can be difficult to remove. Some fabrics can retain wear wrinkles and have increased pilling (the formation of small lint-like balls on the surface of garments).

(OPTIONAL) An Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) electronically senses and maintains a uniform water temperature by regulating incoming hot and cold water.

Even in cold wash, some warm water is let into the washer to maintain a minimum temperature of approximately 65°F (19°C).

Warm wash is maintained at approximately 95°F (35°C).

Warm rinse is maintained at approximately 70°F (21°C) for all warm rinse settings.

8.(RINSE OPTIONS) You can customize your wash by adding rinse Options to your cycle selections. A cycle will "start" where you set the Cycle Selector Control (Timer) knob. See "Selecting a Cycle and Time." The cycle will "stop" where you set the Options Control knob. This knob has settings for:

One Rinse. Use this option for one rinse after a basic wash cycle, Rinse & Spin, and Drain & Spin.

2nd Rinse. A 2nd Rinse can be added to the Ultra Clean cycle and to the Permanent Press II cycle.

Soak Only. Use this option for set-in stains and soil that need extra time for removal.

Soak & Prewash. Select the prewash option to ensure

thorough cleaning of your heavily soiled and stained loads.

Auto Advance after Prewash. This setting will save your detergent from Prewash and automatically start the Ultra Clean cycle. Expect a 2-minute pause between cycles.

NOTE: The Prewash cycle and Soak & Prewash Only option

should be followed by a main wash cycle with additional detergent added. The Soak Only option should be followed by a main wash cycle without additional detergent.

9.Set the Speeds Control knob according to the type of fabric in the load. See "Selecting Wash/Spin Speeds."

10.Push in the Cycle Selector Control (Timer) knob and turn it clockwise to the wash cycle you want. Reduce the wash time when using a small load size setting. See "Selecting a Cycle and Time."

Pull out the Cycle Selector Control (Timer) knob to start the washer.

To stop or restart your washer

To stop the washer at any time, push in the Cycle Selector Control (Timer) knob.

To restart the washer, close the lid (if open) and pull out the Cycle Selector Control (Timer) knob.

This section describes the wash/spin speeds you can select with the Speeds control. Each speed setting is designed for different types of fabric and soil levels.

Speeds

Selector knob

 

Normal speed

This speed setting is for normally soiled cottons and linens. Setting combines slow speed agitation and fast spin speeds to shorten drying time.

Heavy Duty speed

This speed setting is for sturdy or heavily soiled loads. Setting combines fast speed agitation and fast spin speeds.

Hang Dry speed

This speed setting is for sturdy permanent press fabrics that will be line dried. Setting combines fast speed agitation and slow spin speeds to reduce wrinkling.

Handwash Plus Fine Delicates speed

Use this speed setting for hand washable and special-care items. The wash action has repeating periods of extra-slow speed agitation and soaking. Slow spin speeds help reduce wrinkling.

NOTE: Do not use this cycle for large items such as blankets. Some "Hand Wash" items, particularly wool, naturally shrink when washed. When still wet, block these items by gently stretching to original measurements. Allow the items to dry flat.
