Program/Cycle Guide

Settings and options shown in bold are default settings for that program/cycle. For best fabric care, choose the program/cycle,
options, and settings that best fit the load being washed. Not all settings are available with each program/cycle, and some options
cannot be used together.
Load Size Recommendations
For best results, follow the load size recommendations noted for each program/cycle.
Small load: Fill the washer drum with 3–4 items, not more
than ¼ full.
Medium load: Fill the washer drum up to about ½ full.
Rinse Hold Option
This option keeps laundry in the final rinse water without spinning. Rinse Hold is suitable for delicate laundry and items that require
a lower spin speed, but is not appropriate for silk.
To turn off Rinse Hold and drain the water:
• Turn the knob to select "0" for spin speed, press the knob to confirm your selection, and touch the Start/Pause button.
OR
• Spin the laundry, if desired. Touch the Start/Pause button to spin at the default speed or turn the knob to select a different spin
speed, press the knob to confirm your selection, and touch the Start/Pause button.
