pauses are normal. Refer to “Normal Washer Sounds” to
learn more about the sounds you may hear during a wash
cycle.
■ Refer to “Understanding Washer Cycles” to learn what
happens during a wash cycle.
NOTE: This manual covers several different models. The washer
you purchased will not have all of the cycles described.
Normal cycle
This cycle features high-speed agitation for maximum cleaning,
and high-speed spin to shorten drying time. Select up to 14
minutes of wash time to clean large loads of sturdily constructed
fabrics that are heavily soiled. Select less time to clean washable
knits, cottons, permanent press, and some synthetic fabrics that
are lightly to moderately soiled.
Super Wash - Select the 18-minute Super Wash feature to wash
heavily soiled loads that need maximum soil removal. Use two
times the recommended amount of detergent for this cycle.
Casual cycle
This cycle features a cool-down rinse to minimize wrinkling of
permanent press blends and synthetic fabrics. Select 6 to 10
minutes of wash time to clean lightly to moderately soiled loads.
Gentle cycle
This cycle features a series of brief agitations and soaks, followed
by a short spin. Select up to 6 minutes of wash time to gently
clean special-care items that are lightly or moderately soiled.
Cycle Time and Temperature Options
Some models have the water temperature included in the cycle
selections of the Cycle Control knob.
