SETTING YOUR CYCLE
SELECTOR CONTROL (TIMER)
Use this control to choose the agitation
time and to start the washer. Each cycle
is designed with the wash and spin
speeds that are appropriate for the fab-
rics and soil levels in your wash load.
• For heavy soil and sturdy fabrics, use
the full time (SUPER or REGULAR
if indicated).
• For light soil and delicate fabrics, use less
time (SHORT if indicated).
NOTE: Some "HAND WASH" items,
particularly wool, naturally shrink when
washed. Keep this in mind when you pur-
chase items labeled "Hand Wash." Items
that shrink should be dried flat. When still
wet. block these items by gently stretch-
ing to original measurements.

wash time.

of wash time for lingerie and loosely
knit items.
The PERMANENT PRESS I/DELICATE

rinse that reduces wrinkling.

gentle soil removal and slow spin speeds
to reduce wrinkling.
NORMAL

of wash time for normally soiled cottons
