Selecting a cycle, time, and temperature
Use the information in this section to help
you make the best cycle selections for your
wash loads. Each cycle is designed for
different types of fabrics and soil levels.
OPERATING YOUR WASHER
Heavy cycle
The Heavy cycle features warm or hot water
and longer spins to shorten drying time.
Select this 14-minute cycle to clean large
loads of sturdily constructed fabrics that are
heavily soiled.
Normal cycle
The Normal cycle features cold or warm
water and longer spins to shorten drying
time. Use this 10 or 12-minute cycle to clean
cotton and linen fabrics that are moderately
to heavily soiled.
Light cycle
The Light cycle features a brief wash with
cold water and longer spins to shorten
drying time. Use this 6-minute cycle for
cleaning delicate items and washable knits
that are lightly to moderately soiled.

You may select a different wash time by first
selecting the water temperature (Hot, Warm
or Cold) and then turning to the new wash

1. Push in the Cycle Control Knob and turn
it clockwise to Cold.
2. Pull out the Cycle Control Knob and allow
your washer to fill.
3. When your washer has filled, push in and
turn the Cycle Control Knob to Heavy,
