Cycle Details:
Use this cycle for normally soiled cottons
and mixed fabric loads. This cycle
combines high-speed wash action and
medium-speed spin.
Use this cycle for sturdy garments with
dark or bright colors that could bleed or
fade in a warmer wash cycle. This cycle is
a good choice for washing new garments
that may shrink or fade in their first wash.
The wash action of this cycle is designed
to keep large garments from tangling and
balling up.
IMPORTANT: For best performance, load
garments in loose heaps evenly around
the washplate. Do not load garments
directly over the center of the washplate.
