Normal/Casual

Use this cycle to wash loads of no-iron fabrics such as sport shirts, blouses, casual business clothes, permanent press blends, cottons and linens, and synthetic fabrics. This cycle combines medium speed tumbling, high speed spin, and a load cooling process to reduce wrinkling.

Express Wash

Use this cycle to wash small loads of lightly soiled garments that are needed in a hurry. This cycle combines fast speed tumbling, a shortened wash time, and extra high speed spin to shorten drying time.

Delicate

Use this cycle to wash sheer fabrics and lingerie. This cycle combines low speed tumbling and low speed spin for gentle fabric care.

Silk

Use this cycle to clean washable silk garments. (Check label instructions to make sure that garment is washable.) This cycle gently tumbles and drains without spinning to gently clean garments and minimize wrinkling. Because there is no spinning action, garments will contain a higher amount of water at the end of this cycle.

Wool

Use this cycle to clean washable woolen garments. (Check label instructions to make sure that garment is washable.) This cycle features gentle tumbling and low speed spin to minimize creasing and shrinkage.

Ultra Handwash

Use this cycle to clean hand washable and special-care garments. Similar to the way garments are hand washed in a

sink, the wash action of this cycle combines periods of extra low speed tumbling and soaking. Extra low speed spin reduces wrinkling.

As with any new product, you will hear sounds that you are not accustomed to. You may hear various sounds when the door is locked or unlocked, and during the washing, rinsing, or spinning process. Between changes in wash actions, there will be momentary pauses. You will hear water spraying and splashing during the wash and rinse cycles. These new sounds and pauses are part of normal washer operation. (See "Troubleshooting.")

You can customize your wash by adding OPTIONS to your cycle selections. You can add or change an option after starting a cycle anytime before the selected option begins. Not all Options are available with all cycles.

" If an option is available with a selected cycle, the light for that option will glow when selected.

If an option is unavailable with a selected cycle, there will be a short tone and the light for that option will not glow when selected.

Prewash

Use this option for loads of heavily soiled items that need pretreatment. This option adds a 15 minute prewash and drain to the main wash cycle.

Add detergent to the Prewash and Main Wash compartments of the Dispenser Drawer.

When using Prewash, do not use liquid detergent in the Main Wash compartment. Use powdered detergent for the main wash cycle.

NOTE: The Prewash and Auto Soak options cannot be selected in the same cycle.

Stain Treat

Use this option for heavily soiled loads that need improved stain treatment. When Stain Treat is selected, the water temperature of the selected wash cycle is automatically set to warm. The water will then be heated to a hot water temperature to aid in stain removal. This option will provide optimal removal of organic stains such as blood.

NOTE: If Stain Treat is selected with the Sanitary cycle, the water will be heated to a very hot temperature.
