Cycle Details:
Use this cycle for lightly soiled,
colored clothing or towels. This cycle
is also a good choice for garments
with a wrinkle-free finish. This cycle
uses medium-speed wash action and
medium-speed spin.
Use this cycle to wash small, lightly
soiled loads that are needed in a hurry.
This short cycle combines high-speed
wash action and high-speed spin for
the optimal cleaning and shortened dry
times. A Water Save Spray Rinse is a
preset cycle setting for this cycle.
This cycle combines low-speed wash
and low-speed spin action to clean items
labeled as "Machine Washable" on the
garment care label. Pre Soak and Deep
Clean options are not available in this
cycle.
Use the Clean Washer with AFFRESH™
cycle once a month to keep the inside
of your washer fresh and clean. This
cycle uses a higher water level. Use with
AFFRESH washer cleaner tablet or liquid
®
chlorine bleach to thoroughly clean the
inside of your washer. This cycle should not
be interrupted. See "Cleaning Your Washer."
IMPORTANT: Do not place garments or
other items in the washer during the Clean
Washer with AFFRESH™ cycle. Use this
cycle with an empty wash tub.
This cycle is preset for a 31-minute cycle
and soak time can be adjusted according
to your needs by selecting Soil Level.
After the selected soak period has ended,
the washer will drain but does not spin
the load. At the end of Soak, the washer
will drain and wait for a wash cycle to
be selected, to complete the cleaning
process.
NOTE: Automatic bleach dispensing is
not part of the soak cycle.
Use this option to get a deep rinse followed
by a high-speed spin. The time display will
include an estimate of how long it will take
to fill and drain the washer.
When to use RINSE & SPIN:
For loads that need rinsing only.
For completing a cycle after the power has
been off. The washer will return to pause
mode if the power was interrupted or
unplugged while cycle was running.
Drain & Spin may help shorten drying times
for some heavy fabrics or special-care items.
Drain & Spin may also be used for draining
the washer after canceling a cycle or
completing a cycle after a power failure.
