*The cycle times vary automatically based on your water pressure,
water temperature, detergent, and clothes load. The cycle time
will be extended if oversudsing occurs or the load is unbalanced.
Whitest Whites
This cycle is especially designed for cleaning loads of soiled white
fabrics with the addition of chlorine bleach. Hot washing
temperatures assure optimal bleach activity. An additional rinse
provides optimal rinse performance to avoid chlorine residues on
your laundry. This cycle combines fast-speed tumbling, longer
wash time, and high-speed spin to shorten drying time. It also
includes an Extra Rinse option, which is automatic with Whitest
Whites cycle.
Heavy Duty
Use this cycle to wash loads of sturdy, colorfast fabrics and
heavily soiled garments. This cycle combines fast-speed
tumbling, longer wash time, and high-speed spin to shorten
drying times.
Eco Heavy Duty
This cycle is designed to provide energy savings by reducing hot
water usage, while providing the same wash performance as
Heavy Duty.

Normal
Use this cycle to wash loads of no-iron fabrics such as sport
shirts, blouses, casual business clothes, permanent press blends,
cottons and linens, and synthetic fabrics. This cycle combines
medium-speed tumbling, high-speed spin, and a load cooling
process to reduce wrinkling.
Small Load
Use this cycle to wash small loads of 2-3 lightly soiled garments
that are needed in a hurry. This cycle combines fast-speed
tumbling, a shortened wash time, and high-speed spin to shorten
drying time. Large wash loads will result in the machine increasing
the wash time.
Delicate
Use this cycle to wash sheer fabrics and lingerie. This cycle
combines low-speed tumbling and low-speed spin for gentle
fabric care.
■ Use mesh garment bags to wash undergarments such as
underwire bras, items with strings, and small items such as
socks.
Silk
Use this cycle to clean washable silk and ultra delicate garments
(check label instructions to make sure the garment is washable.)
This cycle gently tumbles and drains with the lowest spinning to
gently clean garments and minimize wrinkling. Garments will
contain a higher amount of water at the end of this cycle because
of the low spin action.
Rinse/Drain & Spin
Use this cycle to get a rinse and spin only. This cycle combines
fast-speed tumbling and high-speed spin. If desired, you can
reduce the spin speed by selecting the speed you want from the
SPIN SPEED option.
Rinse/Drain & Spin is useful for:
■ Loads that need rinsing only.
■ Adding fabric softener to a load using the fabric softener
dispenser.
Using Drain & Spin:
1. Select Rinse/Drain & Spin cycle.
2. Deslect Extra Rinse option.
Soak
Use the Soak cycle to help remove set-in stains on fabrics. This
cycle provides a soak time with warm or cold water followed by
drain. Extra water, a short tumbling phase for equal distribution of
the laundry, and a soaking time without drum movement improve
the removal of set-in stains. Drain without spin assures gentle
treatment, even for delicate articles.
Clean Washer with AFFRESH™ cycle
Use the Clean Washer with AFFRESH™ cycle once a month to
keep the inside of your washer fresh and clean. This cycle uses a
higher water level in combination with AFFRESH
tablet or chlorine bleach to thoroughly clean the inside of your
washing machine. See "Cleaning Your Washer."
IMPORTANT: Do not place garments or other items in the washer
during the Clean Washer with AFFRESH™ cycle. Use this cycle
with an empty wash drum.
