keep the inside of your washer fresh and clean. This cycle uses a
higher water level in combination with AFFRESH _ washer cleaner
tablet or chlorine bleach to thoroughly clean the inside of your
washing machine. See "Cleaning Your Washer."

during the Clean Washer with AFFRESH

As with any new product, you will hear sounds that you are not
accustomed to. You may hear various sounds when the door is
locked or unlocked, and during the washing, rinsing, or spinning
process. Between changes in wash actions, there will be
momentary pauses. You will hear water spraying and splashing
during the wash and rinse cycles. These new sounds and pauses
are part of normal washer operation. See "Troubleshooting."
You can customize your wash by adding options to your cycle
selections. You can add or change an option after starting a cycle
anytime before the selected option begins. Not all Options are
available with all cycles.
