Use these pads to select the desired options for your wash cycle.
Save Energy Plus
The Save Energy Plus option reduces wash and rinse water temperatures to save energy while adding about 5 minutes of wash time to maintain performance. This option must be selected prior to the start of the cycle. The Save Energy Plus option is available in only the Heavy Duty and Whitest Whites cycles.
2nd Rinse
A 2nd rinse can be used to aid in the removal of detergent or bleach residue from garments. This option provides an additional rinse with the same water temperature as the first rinse. This is the default rinse setting for the Whitest Whites cycle. Fabric softener will be dispensed during the 2nd Rinse.
Stain Treat (Catalyst® Cleaning Action)
This option provides enhanced cleaning action for tough stains. The Heavy Duty cycle automatically includes Stain Treat. Choosing Stain Treat will add approximately 5 minutes to a cycle. Stain Treat should be started on a dry load only and should not be selected after the tub has started filling with water.
Stain Treat may be selected as an option with other cycles. See table for details.
