NOTE:

To protect your garments, not every wash/rinse temperature, spin speed, soil level, or option is available with every cycle. A chime will sound and the LED will not light if the selection is not allowed.

The washer automatically adjusts the wash time for the amount of laundry, water pressure, water heating time and other operating conditions.

These cycles use various wash motions to enhance cleaning and/or fabric care performance. The wash motions may sound different at different stages of the wash cycle. This is normal.

The recommended load size for the Sanitize cycle is 10 lbs.
