Speed:
High
Use this cycle for heavily soiled or sturdy items. This cycle
uses spray rinses only. Use this cycle for cleaning the
interior of the washer. See "Washer Care."
High
This cycle introduces liquid chlorine bleach to the load
at the proper time for improved whitening of your heavily
soiled white fabrics. This cycle combines high-speed wash
action and high-speed spin speed. For maximum soil and
stain removal, use the liquid chlorine bleach dispenser for
liquid chlorine bleach, color-safe bleach, or Oxi product
laundry boosters. This cycle can also be used for sturdy
color fabrics, such as towels, without liquid chlorine bleach.
High
Provides maximum wash time and action for tough stains
and soils. Use this cycle for heavily soiled or sturdy items.
This cycle complies with SASO 2885 (standard cotton
program 40°C using Cold temperature and standard cotton
program 60°C using Hot temperature).
Low
Use this cycle to wash large items such as jackets and
small comforters. 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.
No Spin
Use this cycle to soak small spots of set-in stains on
fabrics. The washer will use intermittent agitation and
soaking. After time has expired, water will drain, but the
washer will not spin. Cycle is complete.
High
Combines a rinse and high-speed spin for loads requiring
an additional rinse cycle or to complete a load after power
interruption. Also use for loads that require rinsing only.
High
This cycle uses a spin to shorten drying times for heavy
fabrics or special-care items washed by hand. Use this
cycle to drain washer after cancelling a cycle or completing
a cycle after a power failure.
High
Cold water with an additional wash action gently lifts
stains while caring for fabrics. This cycle will have a Soak
integrated automatically at the beginning of the cycle.
Settings may be adjusted as desired but cold water is
suggested to use.
High
Use this cycle to wash small, lightly soiled loads of 2–3
items that are needed in a hurry. This cycle features
a spray rinse.
Low
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 features a spray rinse.
High
Cold water with an additional wash action gently lifts
stains while caring for fabrics. Settings may be adjusted
as desired but must use only cold water settings.
Low
Use this cycle to wash loads of no-iron fabrics such as
sport shirts, blouses, casual business clothes, permanent
press, and blends.
