CYCLE DESCRIPTION

Sanitary

Use this cycle to clean heavily soiled colorfast fabrics. This cycle combines a very hot water tempera- ture and fast speed tumbling to help ensure the removal of heavy soils and stains. It is recommended that you set your hot water heater to 120º F (49º C) to ensure proper performance during this cycle. The Sanitary cycle also helps kill bacteria, even when no bleach is used. Extra high speed spin helps shorten drying time. The heating element in the tub will heat the wash water to 153°F during this cycle.

Whitest Whites

This cycle is especially designed for cleaning loads of soiled white fabrics with the addition of bleach. Hot washing temperatures assure optimal bleach activity. An additional rinse provides optimal rinse performance to avoid chlorine residues on your laundry. This cycle combines fast speed tumbling, longer wash time, and extra high speed spin to shorten drying time.

Heavy Duty

Use this cycle to wash loads of sturdy, colorfast fabrics and normally soiled garments. This cycle combines fast speed tumbling, longer wash time, and extra high speed spin to shorten drying times. If the water temperature is lower than needed for this cycle, the heater will warm the water to the opti- mum temperature.

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.

Quick 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 gar- ment is washable.) This cycle features gentle tumbling and low speed spin to minimize creasing and shrinkage.

Hand Washables

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.
