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
The Normal cycle features high-speed agitation followed
by a brief period of low-speed agitation for cleaning
cottons and linens. High spin speeds shorten drying time.
Select 6, 9, or 12 minutes of wash time, depending on
whether your load is lightly, moderately or heavily soiled.
Super Wash - Select the Super Wash setting to wash
heavily soiled loads that need maximum soil removal. Use
twice the amount of detergent recommended for a wash
cycle.
Permanent Press cycle
The Permanent Press cycle starts with high-speed
agitation and then steps down 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. Select 6 or 9 minutes of wash
time to clean lightly to moderately soiled loads.
Delicates cycle
The Delicates cycle features a low-speed agitation for
gentle soil removal from delicate items and washable knits.
Low spin speeds minimize wrinkling. Use this 6-minute
cycle to clean lightly to moderately soiled loads.
Hand Washables cycle
The Hand Washables 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. Restart the washer.

Rinse and Spin

When using extra detergent for heavily soiled clothes, or
washing special-care items, you may find an extra rinse
and spin is needed.
1. Push in the Cycle Control knob and turn it clockwise to
any of the Rinse settings.
2. Pull out the Cycle Control knob. The washer fills to the
selected load size, agitates, drains, and spins.
NOTE: An EXTRA RINSE option is available (on some
models). See "Starting your washer."

Drain and Spin

A drain and spin may help shorten drying times for some
heavy fabrics or special-care items by removing excess
water.
1. Push in the Cycle Control knob and turn it clockwise to
any of the Spin settings.
2. Pull out the Cycle Control knob. The washer drains,
then spins.
