OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
whites (on select models only)
Use this cycle for white fabrics and lightly colored
clothing. Refer to fabric care label for use of liquid
chlorine bleach. Hot water is recommended to ensure
optimal bleach activation. For peak rinsing performance
and to avoid chlorine residues on your laundry add
fresh rinse to this cycle.
drain & spin (on select models only)
Use the drain & spin cycle anytime you want to drain
water from the washer and spin out the load.
rinse & spin
Select rinse & spin for loads that need a cold water
rinse or to add fabric softener that may have been
omitted in a regular cycle.
presoak
Use this cycle to soak heavily soiled and stained items
before washing. Any temperature may be selected,
but cold water is recommended with this cycle as
warmer water may set some stains. Use the amount
of detergent recommended for a normal wash cycle. If
desired, use a bleach or a soaking agent safe for the
fabric. The washer will drain at the end of the cycle.
NOTE
Follow presoak with a complete wash cycle suitable
for the load using a half dose of detergent.
