To change the Spin speed, press the
Spin speed button until the desired
setting has been reached. Choose
between No Spin, Low, Medium, High
or Max. Higher spin speeds are not
available on certain cycles, such as
Delicates.
Higher spin speeds remove more
water from the clothes and will
help reduce dry time, but may also
increase the possibility of setting
wrinkles on some fabrics.
NOTE: When using My Cycle, wash
cycle has been started.
NOTE: If wash options are changed
with the My Cycle before starting the
cycle, the My Cycle
and the user will be returned to the
base cycle.

washer with cold water (adding
the prewash detergent), tumble the
clothes, drain and spin. Then the
washer will run the selected wash
cycle.
NOTE: In some special cycles, the
prewash is selected automatically
as the default. This selection can be
modifed at any time.
