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
the 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: When washing large loads, in order to deliver
the best performance, there will be brief periods
of two minutes or more without agitation. These
soak periods are part of the cycle's design, and are
normal.
BULKY/BEDDING
This cycle is for washing blankets or other 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.
TUB CLEAN
Use this cycle to clean the tub of your washing
machine.
PERM.PRESS
This cycle is for washing items such as wrinkle-free
clothes or tablecloths to minimize wrinkles.
TOWELS
Use this cycle for washing towels, shirts, jeans and
mixed leads.
OXl SANITIZE
TM
This wash cycle offers hygienic care for laundry
when used in conjunction with bleach, without high
energy consumption.
NOTE:
Follow the product manufacturer's instructions
for using Oxi products with this cycle.
Never load powdered products into the liquid
bleach dispenser. Doing so can result in the
product not being dispensed or being dispensed
incorrectly. Powders can clog the bleach
dispenser, resulting in leaks or damage to the
washer or your clothing.
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 pounds
(3.6 kg) to prevent damage to the fabric.
Use only natural or wool-safe detergent safe
for 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.
DELICATES
This cycle is for washing lingerie or sheer and lacy
clothes which can easily be damaged.
SPEED WASH
Use the Speed Wash cycle to quickly wash lightly
soiled clothing and small loads. For high wash and
rinse efficiency, it is recommended to wash small
loads of 2-3 lightly soiled garments.
NOTE: Use very little detergent in this cycle. If you
want additional rinsing, you can add an extra rinse
by using the Extra Rinse button.
POWER CLEANSE
Use this cycle for high rinse efficiency through the
increased use of water.
