Maytag W10280468B Washer User Manual


 
5
SPIN
The washer spins the load at increasing speeds for proper water
removal, based on the selected cycle and spin speed.
DONE
Once the cycle is complete, this light will come on. Remove the load
promptly for best results.
WASH
You will hear the impeller moving the load. Unlike traditional washers,
the load is not covered with water. Low-water cleaning means
concentrated cleaning. Rather than diluting detergent as done in an
agitator-style washer, this washer delivers the detergent directly to the
soils. The motor sounds may change at different stages in the cycle.
The wash time is determined by the selected soil level.
RINSE
You will hear sounds similar to the wash cycle as the washer rinses and
moves the load. Fabric softener will be added if the Fabric Softener
option was selected. Some cycles use spray rinsing.

Use this cycle to wash large items such

washer will ll with enough water to wet
down the load before the wash portion
of the cycle begins, and uses a higher
water level than other cycles.
Extra Rinse is a default option, but may
be turned off. For maximum soil
removal use liquid chlorine bleach.
