Super Wash

Use this cycle for heavily soiled or sturdy items. Cycle combines high-speed wash action and high-speed spin. Stain Boost with Heater cycle is the default option for the wash cycle, but it can be turned off. See “Changing Cycles, Modifiers, and Options.” A Water Save Spray Rinse is a preset cycle setting for this cycle.

Whites

This cycle introduces liquid chlorine bleach to the load at the proper time for improved whitening of your heavily soiled white fabrics. This cycle combines high-speed wash action and high- speed spin speed. For maximum soil and stain removal, liquid chlorine bleach can be used in the liquid bleach dispenser. This cycle can also be used for sturdy color fabrics such as towels without liquid chlorine bleach.

Bulky

Use this cycle to wash large items such as comforters, sleeping bags, and blankets. This cycle starts with a soak to thoroughly saturate your large load. This is followed by medium wash action and medium spin speeds to maintain load balance.

Sheets

Use this cycle for sheets, pillowcases, and light blankets or throws. The wash action of this cycle is designed to keep large items from tangling and balling up.

IMPORTANT: For best performance, drop items in loose heaps evenly around the basket wall. Do not load items directly on the impeller for this cycle.

Normal

Use this cycle for normally soiled cottons and mixed fabric loads. This cycle combines high-speed wash action and medium-speed spin. A Water Save Spray Rinse is a preset cycle setting for this cycle.

When washing waterproof/water-resistant items such as plastic lined mattress pads, shower curtains, tarps, jackets, or sleeping bags, select the lowest spin speed setting available for the cycle and washer model being used.
