SETTING YOUR CYCLE
SELECTOR (TIMER) CONTROL
Use this control to choose the agitation
time and to start the washer. Each cycle
is designed with the wash and spin
speeds that are appropriate for the fab-
rics and soil levels in your wash load.
• For heavy soil and sturdy fabrics, use
the full time (SUPER or REGULAR
if indicated).
• For light soil and delicate fabrics, use less
time (SHORT if indicated).
NOTE: Some "Hand Wash" items,
particularly wool, naturally shrink when
washed. Keep this in mind when you
purchase items labeled "Hand Wash,"
Items that shrink should be dried fiat.
When still wet, block these items by
gently stretching to original measure-
ments.
