Selecting a load size

Position the Load Size Selector at the setting that corresponds
to the size load you want to wash. Select a setting based upon
the size of the load and the fabric you are washing. See
pages 10 and 11 for additional loading infomation.
To change the load size setting after the washer has started to
fill, move the Selector to the desired new setting.

Load size tips

- Items should move freely during the wash. Do not overload the
machine or select a load size that is too small for the wash
load.
- Use the Large load size setting for best results with permanent
press clothes.
- Reduce wash time when using the Small load size setting.
Loads with only a few small items need less wash time.
