6.
Set the TEMPERATURE selector to the correct setting for the
type of fabric and soils being washed. Use the warmest water
safe for fabric. Follow garment label instructions.
■
Your washer uses the ACCUWASH
™
automatic
temperature control. The ACCUWASH feature maintains
uniform wash temperatures by regulating incoming hot
and cold water. This helps eliminate undissolved
detergent and ensures consistent cleaning results.
■
The Energy Saving Wash switch reduces hot wash
temperatures when it is turned "ON". Turn the Energy
Saving Wash switch "ON" to save energy when using the
hot wash temperature settings. The hot wash temperature
will be maintained at approximately 100F (38C).
NOTE:
Make sure that both hot and cold water faucets
are turned on or the ACCUWASH feature will not work
properly.
NOTE:
In wash water temperatures colder than 70ºF
(21ºC), detergents do not dissolve well. Soils can be difficult
to remove. Some fabrics can retain wear wrinkles and have
increased pilling (the formation of small lint-like balls on the
surface of garments).

(OPTIONAL STEP) For an additional rinse and spin at the end
of a wash cycle, set the EXTRA RINSE/END OF CYCLE
selector to one of the positions showing Extra Rinse "ON".
8.
(OPTIONAL STEP) Set the EXTRA RINSE/END OF CYCLE
selector to one of the positions showing End of Cycle "ON" if
you want your washer to sound a signal when the wash cycle
is finished. The signal is helpful when you are washing items
that should be removed from the washer as soon as the cycle
ends.

Selecting a Cycle and Time
This section describes the available wash cycles and will help
you make the best cycle selections for your wash loads. Each
cycle is designed for different types of fabric and soil levels.

The washer pauses briefly throughout each cycle. These
pauses are normal. Refer to “Normal Washer Sounds” to
learn more about the sounds you may hear during a wash
cycle.
■
Refer to “Understanding Washer Cycles” to learn what
happens during a wash cycle.
Normal cycle
This cycle features high-speed agitation for cleaning cottons and
linens, and high spin speed to shorten drying time. Select up to
15 minutes of wash time, depending on whether your load is
lightly, moderately or heavily soiled. For lightly soiled cotton and
linen fabrics, use the shortest time setting.
Casual/Permanent Press cycle
This cycle starts with high-speed agitation and then steps to low-
speed agitation for cleaning permanent press blends and
synthetic fabrics. To minimize wrinkling, this cycle features a
cool-down rinse and a low-speed final spin. Use this cycle to
clean lightly to moderately soiled loads.
Extra Delicate cycle
This cycle features extra low-speed agitation for gentle soil
removal from delicate items and washable knits. Low spin
speeds minimize wrinkling. Select 3 or 6 minutes of wash time,
depending on your model, to clean lightly to moderately soiled
loads.
Hand Washables cycle
This cycle features a series of brief, low speed agitations and
short soaks to gently clean special-care items. Low spin speeds
minimize wrinkling. Wash small loads. If items appear to be
floating (due to trapped air), stop the washer by pushing in the
Cycle Control knob. Push items down into the washer. Pull out
the Cycle Control knob to restart the washer.
