Laundry Tip

For best cleaning results use:
- Hot wash water for normally
soiled, permanent press and
synthetic items; white and
colorfast cottons: heavy soils and
diapers.
-Warm wash water for permanent
press and 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. Dissolve detergent in one
quart (1L) of warm water before
adding it to the washer or use a
liquid detergent.

E. Select cycle and wash

time

Push in cycle control knob and turn it
clockwise.
Stop when the indicator on the knob’s
outer ring points to the wash cycle you
want. The number tells the minutes of
wash agitation time. (Use longer wash
times for heavily soiled clothes.)

the following cycles. (See pages 5 and 6
for specific model information.)

or heavily soiled items.

To get maximum use, satisfaction
and longer washer life:
’ Do Not soak fabrics:
- for more than 2 hours in the
washer.
- with chlorine bleach in the
washer.
- with vinegar or other acids in
the washer.
- without detergent.
- with hot water because it can
set stains. Use warm water for
best results.
- or store urine-soaked clothes in
the washer.
. Do Not leave wet laundry in the
washer.
. Do Not put sharp or heavy objects
on or in the washer. Check
pockets for nuts, bolts, etc. These
objects may damage the washer.

F. To start

Pull cycle control knob out. The washer
will fill to the selected water level and
water temperature. After filling, the
washer will agitate for a selected
number of minutes. The washer will
pause briefly throughout each cycle.
This allows for the reversing of the
motor, normal washer operation and
cool-down.

G. To stop at any time

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

H. Rinse and spin

Complete rinsing of fabrics washed
with extra detergent may require an
extra rinse and spin. To set for extra
rinse and spin:
1. Push cycle control knob in.
2. Turn knob clockwise to any dot on
the dial (see arrows in drawing).
3. Pull cycle control knob out. The
washer will fill to selected level,
agitate, drain and spin.

Normal operations

You can expect the following when your
washer is operating:
Water spraying
during the spin
sections of some cycles. Water is
sprayed on the spinning load to help
with rinsing.
Pausing.
The washer pauses briefly
throughout each cycle to allow for the
reversing of the motor, normal washer
operation and the cool-down portion of
the Permanent Press cycle. When the
washer pauses, you will hear no
operating sounds.
