Speed:
High Use this cycle for heavily soiled or sturdy items. Water-level
sensing process may take longer for some items than for
others because they will absorb more water than other fabric
types.
High Use this cycle to wash large items. The washer will fill with
enough water to wet down the load before the wash portion
of the cycle begins. This cycle uses a higher water level than
other cycles.
High Provides maximum wash time and action for tough stains
and soils. Use this cycle for heavily soiled or sturdy items.
Water-level sensing process may take longer for some items
than for others because they will absorb more water than
other fabric types.
High Use this cycle for normally or lightly soiled cottons and
mixed-fabric loads.
Low Use this cycle to wash loads of no-iron fabrics such as sport
shirts, blouses, casual business clothes, permanent press,
and blends.
Low Use this cycle to wash lightly soiled garments indicating
"Machine Washable Silks" or "Gentle" cycle on the care
label. Place small items in mesh garment bags before
washing. This cycle uses a higher, preset water level.
High Cold water with an additional wash action gently lifts stains
while caring for fabrics. Settings may be adjusted as desired
but must use only cold water settings.
High Combines a rinse and high-speed spin for loads requiring
an additional rinse cycle or to complete a load after power
interruption. Also use for loads that require rinsing only.
High This cycle uses a spin to shorten drying times for heavy
fabrics or special-care items washed by hand. Use this cycle
to drain washer after cancelling a cycle or completing a cycle
after a power failure.
Low Use this cycle every 30 washes 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 "Washer Care."
IMPORTANT: Do not place garments or other items in the
washer during this cycle. Use only with an empty wash tub.
No Spin Use this cycle to soak small spots of set-in stains on fabrics.
The washer will use intermittent agitation and soaking. At the
end of the cycle, water will drain but washer will not spin.
