Select water level

To set the correct water level, turn the water level selector knob to the level that describes the size of your wash load.

The water level can be set to SMALL (a few small items) or LARGE (a full load).

NOTE: For best results with permanent press clothes, use the LARGE water level.

Reduce wash time when using the SMALL water level setting. Loads with only a few small items need less wash time for best results.

Wash cycles

Regular Heavy (14 min.) Wash sturdily constructed fabrics (i.e. cotton) or heavily soiled items.

Regular Normal (6 min.) Wash moder- ately soiled fabrics.

Permanent Press (10 min.) Wash moderately soiled permanent press and some synthetic fabrics. Cool-down rinse helps to keep fabrics from wrinkling.

Permanent Press (6 min.) Wash lightly soiled permanent press and some synthetic fabrics. Cool-down rinse helps to keep fabrics from wrinkling.

Select cycle and water temperature

To set the water temperature, push in the cycle control knob and turn it clockwise to the area marked H (hot), W (warm) or C (cold). Set water temperature level according to fabric label or the amount of soil to be washed.

NOTE: All rinses use cold water.

Start the washer by pulling out cycle control knob. The washer will fill to the level you set with wash water of the selected temperature. After filling, stop the washer by pushing in cycle control knob. Select wash time

Laundry Tip

For best cleaning results, use:

-Hot wash water for normally soiled, permanent press and synthetic items; white and color- fast cottons; heavy soils and diapers.

-Warm wash water for knits; dark or non-colorfast colors; washable woolens; moderate soil.

-Cold wash water for lightly soiled fabrics; some non-colorfast colors.

Dry detergents can spot-fade wet laundry. If using cold water, dissolve recommended amount of detergent in one quart (1 L) of warm water before adding it to the washer, or use a liquid detergent.

Select wash time

Select a wash time by stopping the washer after filling. Turn cycle control knob to the number in the wash cycle you want. The numbers are minutes of wash time. Restart the washer.

To start

Pull cycle control knob out. The washer will agitate for a selected number of minutes. Agitation can occur with the washer lid up or down. The washer will pause briefly throughout each cycle. These pauses are normal for washer operation.

To stop at any time

Push cycle control knob in. To restart, pull cycle control knob out.
