Level:
Light 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.
Medium Provides additional water and alternating wash action for
heavily soiled mixed loads. Water-level sensing process may
take longer for some items than for others because they will
absorb more water than other fabric types.
Heavy Use this cycle for normally soiled cottons and mixed fabric
loads.
Heavy 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.
Medium Use this cycle to wash loads of no-iron fabrics such as sport
shirts, blouses, casual business clothes, permanent
press, and blends.
Light 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.
Heavy 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.
Heavy 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.
Light 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
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 the Clean Washer with affresh
