Heavy Duty
Use this cycle for sturdy or heavily soiled loads. Wash combines
fast speed agitation and fast spin speeds.
• Use the Super or Regular settings for heavily soiled and
sturdy fabrics.
• Use the Short setting for light soil and delicate fabrics.
Permanent Press
The Permanent Press Cycle includes a load cooling process that
reduces wrinkling. Wash combines fast and slow speed agitation
and slow spin speeds.
When the timer reaches Pause, the washer will drain and pause
for approximately 2 minutes while some of the wash water is
drained and replaced with rinse water.
Knit/Delicate
Use this cycle for lingerie and loosely knit items. Partway through
the cycle the washer pauses and soaks the load for more gentle
care of lightly soiled delicate items. Wash combines slow speed
agitation for gentle soil removal and slow spin speeds to reduce
wrinkling.
Soak
The Soak cycle features 4 minutes of agitation followed by an
unlimited soak time to help remove heavy soils and stains that
need pretreatment. You will need to reset the washer to a SPIN
setting to remove water.
• The Soak cycle should be followed by the Heavy Duty or
Permanent Press or Prewash cycle with additional
detergent.
NOTE: Hot water is not recommended for soaking. It may set
some stains.
Prewash
Use this cycle to get up to 4 minutes of agitation to help remove
heavy soils and stains that need pretreatment
• The Prewash cycle should be followed by the Heavy Duty
or Permanent Press cycle with additional detergent.
A drain and spin may help shorten drying times for some heavy
fabrics or special-care items by removing excess water.
1. Push in the Cycle Control knob and turn it clockwise to any of
the SPIN settings.
• For a fast spin, use the Heavy Duty cycle.
• For a slow spin, use the Permanent Press cycle.
2. Pull out the Cycle Control knob. The washer drains, then
spins.
When the Cycle Control knob is set to a number and pulled out,
the washer fills (to the selected load size) before agitation and
timing start. The washer begins agitating immediately after filling;
agitation occurs with the washer lid up or down.
During agitation, the agitator creates a continuous rollover action
that provides a thorough cleaning of the wash load.
After agitation starts, the Cycle Control knob turns clockwise until
it points to an Off area and the cycle ends.
