Cycle Guide - Whirlpool 8TWFW5620HW Use And Care Manual

CYCLE GUIDE

This washer has a unique user interface to help you select the best cycle for your load. The "What to Wash" "How to Wash" layout
guides you to the optimal cycle in two easy steps:
First determine what items are in the load that you are trying to wash. Use that to guide your "What to Wash" selection. Then determine
how you want the washer to wash them and select the appropriate "How to Wash" selection. Selecting "What to Wash" will automatically
select a default "How to Wash selection," so selecting a "How to Wash" is optional. See chart below for more details.

Settings and options shown in bold are default settings for that wash cycle. For best fabric care, choose the cycle, options, and
settings that best fit the load being washed. Always read and follow fabric care labels and laundry product instructions. Avoid tightly
packing the washer. The washer will not rinse well or spin correctly if tightly packed. Not all settings are available with each cycle, and
some options cannot be used together. Not all options are available on all models.

* This cycle eliminates 99.9% of the most common bacteria found in clothes, sheets, and towels. Using the highest wash temperature available and
adding a powdered Oxi product in the drum (on some models) ensures sanitization. Check recommended wash temperature of your items and use the
amount of Oxi recommended by the manufacturer (on some models). Bacteria tested were K. pneumonia, P. aureginosa, and S. aureus.
