Maytag SE1000 Washer/Dryer User Manual


 
m SELECT WASH TIME
Wash time can be increased or decreased on any wash cycle by pressing the "MORE" or "LESS" pad
until fill is complete. The minutes of agitation will count up or down, one minute at a time in the
display.
Regular Fabrics -- 6-10 minutes for normally soiled clothes, over 10 minutes for heavily soiled
clothes (can be set up to 19 minutes); and less than 6 minutes for lightly
soiled.
Permanent Press -- 6-8 minutes for normally soiled clothes, over 8 minutes for heavily soiled
clothes (can be set up to 19 minutes); and less than 6 minutes for lightly
soiled.
Delicates Knits m
The Delicates Knits cycle automatically selects 6 minutes of alternate periods
of agitation and soak. Setting the wash time for more than 6 minutes (can be
set up to 19 minutes) will add soak time only. To achieve proper cleaning_
the wash time should not be set for less than 6 minutes.
Automatic Presoak m
This option would be selected for heavily soiled or stained loads of Regular, Permanent Press or
Delicate items. Presoak will automatically advance into the main wash without draining. Therefore,
always use a presoak product such as Axion or Biz along with the regular amount of detergent, or
more than the usual amount of detergent (up to 50% more). If you choose to use bleach, it can also
be added at this time.
To use this option:
1. Select Regular, Permanent Press or Delicate cycle.
2. Choose load size, Wash/Rinse temperatures, and wash time.
3. Touch "Automatic Presoak" pad. (Wash temperature and presoak temperature will be the same.)
4. Adjust presoak time down from 19 minutes by pressing "LESS" pad if desired.
This option provides a convenient and economical method of treating heavily soiled items. The
automatic presoak option can be canceled by pressing the pad a second time. When it is canceled,
the indicator light will go out.
Pause/Resume --
This pad is used to interrupt any cycle without canceling any of the selections. When you touch the
"Pause/Resume" pad while the washer is in operation a "P" will appear in the display, the lid will
unlock, and the washer will pause. The washer will remain in the pause mode until you close the lid
and touch the pad a second time to resume the cycle. If you try to resume the cycle with the lid open,
an "L" will appear in the display. Once the wash fill has been completed and either "L" or "P" is in the
display, the washer will signal with an electronic tone twice every minute until you resume the cycle.
The washer will always resume the cycle from the point at which it was interrupted. If you touch the
"Pause/Resume" pad while the washer is filling, it will complete the fill before it goes into the pause
mode. This will give you access to water for pretreating, diluting fabric softener, etc., while the washer
is filling.
Warm Rinse --
Touching the "Warm Rinse" pad will provide a warm final rinse except for the Permanent Press pro-
gram where the final rinse will always be cold.
