You may select different wash times by first
selecting the water temperature and then
turning to the new wash time. For example, if
you desire 14 minutes wash time with cokl
water:
1. Push in the Cycle Control Knob and turn it
clockwise to Normal Soil-6 (cold wash
water).
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 clockwise to
Heavy Soil-14. (Your washer may add a
small amount of additional warm water,
but this should not affect the overall desired
wash water temperature.)
4. Pull out the Cycle Control Knob.
