How TO USE
MAIN CYCLE
Wash cycles are designed for the best wash
performance for each type of load. Select the cycle
that best matches the load contents for maximum
wash performance and fabric care. Turn the knob to
desired cycle. When you select a wash cycle, the
light for the corresponding wash cycle will turn on.
See page 19, OPERATING THE WASHER, for more
details on operating methods.
COTTON/NORMAL
Use this cycle to wash all normal items, except
delicate fabrics such as wool or silk.
NOTE: Pressing the Start Pause button without
selecting a cycle will cause the COTTON/NORMAL
cycle to begin immediately using the default
settings.
HEAVY DUTY
This cycle is for washing heavily soiled laundry using
more powerful wash motions.
NOTE: Please Note that for maximum capacity loads
(20 Ibs and greater), the soak option algorithm is
tweaked and optimized in order to deliver the best
performance. During the soaking process, there will
be brief periods of no agitation upwards of 2 minutes
in order to allow the detergent to fully dissolve and be
rinsed from the load. This is intended by design and is
no cause for concern.
BULKY/BEDDING
This cycle is for washing blankets or bulky items.
NOTE: Using the Bulky/Bedding Cycle with a low
spin speed is recommended when washing water-
proof or water-resistant items, to help protect the
fabric's properties.
BRIGHT WHITES
TM
This cycle is for washing white items only.
SANITARY

through high temperature.

TM
This cycle is a powerful, high temperature cycle
designed specifically to reduce certain allergens.
NOTE:
Selecting the ALLERGIENE
TM
cycle automatically
incorporates steam into the wash cycle.
The ALLERGIENE
TM
cycle can significantly
reduce allergens in bedding and clothing.
The ALLERGIENE
TM
cycle helps reduce dust
mite populations and helps reduce allergens.
Due to the higher energy and temperatures
used, the ALLERGIENE
TM
cycle is not
recommended for wool, silk, leather, or any
other delicate or temperature sensitive items

machine.

designed and treated for sport.

SPEED WASH
Use the Speed Wash cycle to quickly wash lightly
soiled clothing and small load. For high wash and rinse
efficiency, it is recommended to wash small loads of
2-3 lightly soiled garments.
NOTE: Use a little detergent in this cycle. If you
want more rinsing, you can add extra rinse by
using the Extra Rinse button.
WOOL
This cycle is for washing shrinkable woolen or hand-
washable items requiring delicate care. Only wash woolen
items that are labeled machine washable or hand-washable.
NOTE:
Laundry weight should be less than 8 pound (3.6
kg) to prevent damage to the fabric.
Use only natural or wool-safe detergent
harmless to fabrics and load 1/2 of the normal
amount of detergent.
The WOOL cycle uses a gentle wash action and
low speed spin for the ultimate fabric care.

clothes which can easily be damaged.
