Select Water Level
Determine the selected setting based on clothes load
size. Selection should provide sufficient water to permit
clothe

models, the W
ater Level control allows you to select a
specific setting or anywhere in between.
It may become nece
ss
ary, due to bulky fabrics, to
adjust the water level after agit
ation begins. To adjust
the water level, turn the control to
r
eset

to the desired setting.
