Load Size
(on some models)
Loosely load clothes no higher than the top row of holes in the washer tub. The water level
should just cover the clothes. Adjust the load size accordingly.
Temperature
Select the water temperature for the wash and rinse cycles. Always follow fabric manufacturer’s
care label or instructions when laundering.
Custom Care
The agitator moves clothes around for a cleaner wash; the basket spins later in the cycle to release
water from the load. The Wash/Spin Speed dial sets the speed of both the agitator and the basket.
Wash Speeds
With Normal wash speed, the agitator will move at a higher speed. Use for cottons, denims and
play clothes.
With Gentle wash speed, the agitator moves slower. Use for delicate and knit items.
Spin Speeds
The Fast spin speed is for normal items. Use it to remove more water from your clothes to allow
them to dry faster in the dryer.
The Slow spin speed is for delicate items like sweaters and lingerie. When using Slow spin speed,
clothes will be less dry than when using Fast spin speed.
Wash Cycle
The wash cycle controls the length of the washing process. The chart below will help you match
the wash cycle setting with your clothing.
COTTONS For heavy to lightly soiled cottons, household linens, work and play clothes.
WRINKLE FREE For easy care, wrinkle-free and permanent press items.
DELICATES For lingerie and special-care fabrics with light to normal soil.
PREWASH For heavily soiled clothes or for clothes with a care label that recommends
prewashing before washing.
Extra Rinse
When you use extra detergent or bleach to clean heavily soiled clothes, you may want to use the
Extra Rinse option. This option provides a second deep cold rinse in the

cycles. Turn the Extra Rinse knob to

Extra Rinse option begins.
