NOTE:
• To protect your garments, not every wash temperature, spin speed, soil level, or option is available with every
cycle. A chime will sound and the LED will not light if the selection is not allowed.
• The washer automatically adjusts the wash time for the amount of laundry, water pressure, water heating time and
other operating conditions.
• These cycles use various wash motions to enhance cleaning and/or fabric care performance. The wash motions may
sound different at different stages of the wash cycle. This is normal.
• The recommended load size for the Sanitize cycle is 10 lbs.
• If the Accela-Wash option is on, you cannot select "No Spin" as your Spin Speed.
(If the Accela-Wash option is off, you can select "No Spin" as your Spin Speed.)
