Selecting a cycle and time

You will find information you need to help you make correct cycle selections in this section.

lPages 6-6: Use the information on these pages to guide you when selecting a wash cycle and time.

lPage 9: Use this page to help you under- stand what happens during a wash cycle.

NOTE: Your washer selects a wash water temperature and time when you select a wash cycle (see page 7). You may select different wash times by first selecting the water tem- perature and then turning to the new wash time. For example, if you desire 14 minutes wash time with cold water:

1.Push in the Cycle Control Knob and turn it clockwise to Normal Soil-6 (cold wash water).

2.Pull out the Cycle Control Knob and allow your washer to fill.

3.When your washer has filled, push in and turn the Cycle Control Knob clockwise to Heavy Soil-14. (Your washer may add a small amount of additional warm water, but this should not affect the overall desired wash water temperature.)

4.Pull out the Cycle Control Knob.
