OPERATING YOUR WASHER
Selecting a cycle and time
This section illustrates and describes the
wash cycles you can select with the Cycle
Control Knob. Use this information to help
you make the best cycle selections for your
wash loads. Each cycle is designed for
different types of fabrics and soil levels.
• The washer pauses briefly throughout
each cycle. These pauses are normal for
washer operation.
Super Wash cycle
The Super Wash cycle (18 minutes) features
an extended wash time
for washing heavily
soiled loads that need
maximum soil removal.
For improved cleaning,
use two times the
amount of detergent
recommended for a wash cycle.
Normal cycle
The Normal cycle features the Gentle Wash
system, and high
agitation and spin
speeds to shorten
drying time. Use this
cycle for cleaning
cotton and linen
fabrics. Select 10
(Regular) or 14 (Heavy) minutes of wash
time, depending on whether your load is
moderately or heavily soiled.
Permanent Press cycle
The Permanent Press cycle features the
Gentle Wash system, a
cool-down rinse, and
low spin speeds to
reduce wrinkling. Use
this cycle for cleaning
permanent press and
some synthetic fabrics.
Select 6 (Light) or 10 (Regular) minutes of
wash time, depending on whether your wash
load is lightly or moderately soiled.
