Cycle Details:
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.
Deep Clean and Extra Rinse are default
options, but may be turned off. For
maximum soil removal use liquid chlorine
bleach.
Use this cycle to wash large items such as
jackets and small comforters. The washer
will fill with enough water to wet down the
load before the wash portion of the cycle
begins, and uses a higher water level than
other cycles.
Use this cycle for normally soiled
cottons and mixed fabric loads. This
cycle uses spray rinses. Low Speed Spin
is not available.

with
Affresh T"
Combines a rinse and spin for loads
requiring an additional rinse cycle or to
complete a load after power interruption.
Spin speed is selectable; default is high.
This cycle uses a higher, preset water level.
Also use for loads that require rinsing only.
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.
Use once a month to keep the inside
of the washer fresh and clean. Higher
water levels and Affresh ® work together
to thoroughly clean the washer interior.
