NOTE:
For best washing results, items
should move freely in the washer. Do
not overload the washer or choose a
water level that is too low for your
wash load.
For best results with permanent
press clothes, use the LARGE
water level.
Reduce wash time when using
SMALL water level settings. Loads with
only a few small items need less wash
time for best results.
2. Select water temperature
l
Match the water temperature to the
type of fabric and soils being washed.
l
The top temperature is the wash
selection and the bottom temperature
is the rinse selection.
NOTE:
Use warm wash water with
the PERMANENT PRESS or KNITS/
GENTLE Cycles.
For heavily soiled permanent press
or knit clothes, pre-wash or presoak
before washing in warm water.
ALWAYS use cold rinse water for
permanent press fabrics.
