Cycle Details:
This cycle combines high-speed wash
action with the Max Extract spin speed.
The Water Save Spray Rinse is a preset
setting for this cycle.
This cycle introduces liquid chlorine bleach
to the load at the proper time for improved
whitening of your heavily soiled white
fabrics. For maximum soil removal use
liquid chlorine bleach.
The washer will fill with enough water
to wet down the load before the wash
portion of the cycle begins, and uses a
higher water level than other cycles.
The wash action of this cycle is designed
to keep large items from tangling and
balling up. Do not load items directly on
the washplate for this cycle, load in loose
heaps evenly around the basket wall.
Use this cycle for normally soiled
cottons and mixed fabric loads. This
cycle uses the Water Save Spray Rinse.
Low Speed Spin is not available.
Use this cycle for heavily soiled or sturdy
items. Water-level sensing process may
take longer for some items than for others
because they will absorb more water than
other fabric types.
Use this cycle for lightly soiled, colored
garments or towels. This cycle is a good
choice for fabrics with a wrinkle-free finish.
Use this cycle to wash small, lightly soiled
loads that are needed in a hurry. A Water
Save Spray Rinse is the preset cycle
setting for this cycle.
Use this cycle to wash lightly soiled
garments indicating "Machine Washable
Silks" or "Gentle" cycle on the care label.
Place small items in mesh garment bags
before washing. This cycle uses a higher,
preset water level.
Use this cycle to soak small spots of
set-in stains on fabrics. After time has
expired, water will drain, but washer will
not spin. To set a follow-up cycle, select
Drain & Spin, add additional detergent
and select a cycle based on fabric type.
Combines a rinse and spin for loads
requiring an additional rinse cycle or to
complete a load after power interruption.
Spin speed is selectable; default is Max
Extract. This cycle uses a higher, preset
water level. Also use for loads that require
rinsing only.
