Select Water Level - Maytag MAV-5 Use And Care Manual

Using the Controls
STEP 1

Select Water Level

Determine the selected setting based on clothes load
size. Selection should provide sufficient water to permit
clothes to circulate freely during agitation. On select
models, the Water Level control allows you to select a
specific setting or anywhere in between.
It may become necessary, due to bulky fabrics, to
adjust the water level after agitation begins. To adjust
the water level, turn the control to reset and then back
to the desired setting.
