Selecting a cycle and time

This section illustrates and describes the

Control Knob. Use this information to help
you make the best cycle selections for your
wash loads. Each cycle is designed for
different types of fabrics and soil levels.
Normal cycle
The Normal cycle features the Gentle Wash
system, high agitation speeds, and longer
spin speeds to shorten drying time. Use this
cycle for cleaning cotton and linen fabrics.
Select 9 (Regular), 12 (Heavy), or 15 (Ex
Heavy) minutes of wash time, depending
on whether your load is moderately or
heavily soiled.
For lightly soiled cotton and linen fabrics,
use the 6-minute Softwash setting.
Permanent Press cycle
The Permanent Press cycle features the
Gentle Wash system, a cool-down rinse,
and low spin speeds to reduce wrinkling.
Use this cycle for cleaning permanent press
and some synthetic fabrics. Select 6 (Light)
or 9 (Regular) minutes of wash time,
depending on whether your wash load is
lightly or moderately soiled.
