OPERATING YOUR WASHER

CYCLE DESCRIPTIONS

(Models GSQ9300, GSQ9340,GSQ9344, GST9344)

Cycles may vary with model

Normal cycle

The Normal cycle features high-speed agitation for cleaning cottons and linens. High spin speeds shorten drying times. Select 9 (Regular), 12 (Reg/ Hvy), or 15 (Heavy) minutes of wash time, depend- ing on whether your load is moderately or heavily soiled. For lightly soiled cotton and linen fabrics, use the 6-minute Light setting.

Super Wash – Select the 18-minute Super Wash feature to wash heavily soiled loads that need maximum soil removal. Use two times the amount of recommended detergent for this cycle.

Permanent Press cycle

The Permanent Press cycle starts with high-speed agitation and then steps down to low-speed agita- tion for cleaning permanent press blends and synthetic fabrics. To minimize wrinkling, this cycle features a cool-down rinse and a low-speed final spin. Select 3 (Extra Light), 6 (Light) or 9 (Regular) minutes to clean very light to moderately soiled loads.

Ultimate Care* cycle

(Hand Washables)

The Ultimate Care (Hand Washables) cycle features a series of brief, extra low-speed agitations

(7 seconds) and short soaks (12 seconds) to gently clean special-care items. Low spin speeds minimize wrinkling. Use 6 minutes of wash time to clean lightly soiled hand washables.

Garments are labeled “Hand Wash” because:

The fiber or construction may be sensitive to agitation.

The fabric contains sensitive dyes that may bleed. Properly sort and then use your Hand Washables cycle for gentle washing. Follow care label direc- tions for drying. Items that may shrink should be dried flat. Block these items by gently stretching to original measurements. Woolens tend to shrink more the first time they are washed.

If items appear to be floating due to trapped air, stop the washer by pushing in the Cycle Control knob. Push items down into the water. Restart the washer.

Extra Delicate cycle

The Extra Delicate cycle features an extra low- speed agitation for gentle soil removal from delicate items and washable knits. Low spin speeds minimize wrinkling. Select 3 (Light)or 6 (Regular) minutes to clean light to moderately soiled loads.
