Normal/Casual
Use this cycle to wash loads of no-iron fabrics such as sport
shirts, blouses, casual business clothes, permanent press
blends, cottons and linens, and synthetic fabrics. This cycle
combines medium-speed tumbling, high-speed spin, and a load
cooling process to reduce wrinkling.
NOTE:
For the best energy performance, use the Normal/Casual
Cycle.
Heavy Duty
Use this cycle to wash loads of sturdy, colorfast fabrics and
heavily soiled garments. This cycle combines fast-speed
tumbling, longer wash time, and extra high speed spin to shorten
drying times. If the water temperature is lower than needed for
this cycle, the heater will warm the water to the optimum
temperature.
Whitest Whites
This cycle is especially designed for cleaning loads of soiled
white fabrics with the addition of bleach. Hot washing
temperatures assure optimal bleach activity. An additional rinse
provides optimal rinse performance to avoid chlorine residues on
your laundry. This cycle combines fast-speed tumbling, longer
wash time, and extra high speed spin to shorten drying time.
Sanitary
Use this cycle to clean heavily soiled colorfast fabrics. This cycle
combines a very hot water temperature and fast-speed tumbling
to help ensure the removal of heavy soils and stains. It is
recommended that you set your hot water heater to 120ºF (49ºC)
to ensure proper performance during this cycle. Extra high speed
spin helps shorten drying time.
Clean Washer
Use the Clean Washer cycle once a month to keep the inside of
your washer fresh and clean. This cycle uses a higher water level
in combination with liquid chlorine bleach to thoroughly clean the
inside of your washing machine. See
“
Cleaning Your Washer.
”
IMPORTANT: Do not place garments or other items in the washer
during the Clean Washer cycle. Use this cycle with an empty
wash drum.
Rinse/Drain & Spin
This is a combined cycle. See below for detailed instructions on
each option.
Use this cycle to rinse, drain, and spin your wash load. This cycle
combines fast-speed tumbling and high-speed spin. If desired,
you can reduce the spin speed by selecting the speed you want
from the SPIN SPEED modifier.
Rinse/Drain & Spin is useful for
■ Loads that need rinsing only.
■
Adding fabric softener to a load using the fabric softener
dispenser.
Drain & Spin
Use this cycle to drain your washer or to drain and spin your
wash load. The spin speed is preset to high. If desired, you can
reduce the spin speed by selecting the speed you want from the
SPIN SPEED modifier.
NOTE: Loads of synthetics, delicate fabrics, handwashables, and
woolens should be drained with no spin or low spin to avoid
fabric stress.
To use Drain & Spin setting
■ Select RINSE/DRAIN & SPIN cycle.
■
Press the 2ND RINSE button to deselect the rinse option.
■
Press START.
Handwash/Delicate
Use this cycle to clean washable silk and ultra delicate garments.
(Check label instructions to make sure that garment is washable.)
This cycle gently tumbles and drains without spinning to gently
clean garments and minimize wrinkling. Garments will contain a
higher amount of water at the end of this cycle, because there is
no spinning action.
■ Use mesh garment bags to wash undergarments such as
underwire bras, items with strings, and small items such as
infant socks.
■
Powdered detergents may not dissolve well in a slow-speed
cycle. For best results, use liquid detergent for slow-speed
cycles.
Express Wash
Use this cycle to wash small loads of 2-3 lightly soiled garments
that are needed in a hurry. This cycle combines fast-speed
tumbling, a shortened wash time, and extra high speed spin to
shorten drying time. Large wash loads will result in the machine
increasing the wash time.
Soak
Use the Soak cycle to remove small spots or stains on fabrics.
This cycle provides up to a 30-minute soak time with warm or
cold water followed by drain. Extra water, a short tumbling phase
for equal distribution of the laundry, and a soaking time without
drum movement improve the removal of stains. Drain without
spin assures gentle treatment, even for delicate articles.
Using the Soak Cycle: The Soak cycle provides a soak time with
warm or cold water followed by drain.
1. Add detergent only to the Main Wash compartment of the
dispenser drawer.
2. Press the SOAK button.
3. Choose the desired soak temperature.
Select and hold START (approximately 1 second).
Normal Washer Sounds
As with any new product, you will hear sounds that you are not
accustomed to. You may hear various sounds when the door is
locked or unlocked, and during the washing, rinsing, or spinning
process. Between changes in wash actions, there will be
momentary pauses. You will hear water spraying and splashing
during the wash and rinse cycles. These new sounds and pauses
are part of normal washer operation. (See “Troubleshooting.”)
