Normal
Use this load for cotton, linen, towels, shirts, sheets, denims
and mixed loads.
Sanitize
Use the Sanitize cycle to clean and sanitize heavily soiled,
colorfast fabrics including towels, bedding, and children's
clothing.
It is recommended that you set your water heater to 120°
F (49° C) or higher to ensure proper performance during
this cycle. If the setting is lower or the load is extra large,
the cycle time will be extended by 30 minutes or more.
The Sanitize cycle will kill 99.9% of bacteria with no
carryover of bacteria between loads. No bleach or harsh
chemicals are needed, but higher temperatures are re-
quired. Please check fabric care labels to prevent damage.
NOTE
Only sanitizing cycles have been designed to meet the
requirements of NSF P172 protocol for sanitization e cacy.

In the Sanitize cycle the wash water is heated by an
internal boost heater as the load tumbles. Cold water is
added to cool down the load prior to drain and spin.
NOTE
If the voltage at your outlet is under 110 v, the internal
heater may not adequately heat the wash water. If
the cycle is interrupted while the water is heating, the
nal temperature of the wash water may be lower and
sanitization may be reduced.
Heavy Duty
Use this cycle for heavily soiled, durable garments such as
towels, sports gear or fabric tote bags. For best soil and
stain removal, use the hottest water safe for the fabrics
being washed.
Casual
Use this cycle for cottons and blends with a permanent
press or no-iron nish.
Delicates
Use this cycle for lightly soiled knits and delicates which
require gentle washing.
Rinse & Spin
Select Rinse & Spin for loads that need a cold water rinse
or to add fabric softener that may have been omitted in
a regular cycle. Add the fabric softener to the dispenser
chamber. Select the spin speed appropriate for the load.
NOTE
You may deselect Extra Rinse if you wish to perform a
spin only cycle or select No Spin if you want to perform a
drain only cycle.
