Spin
Speed**:
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 uses a higher, preset
water level.
High
Provides maximum wash time and action for tough stains and soils.
Use this cycle for heavily soiled or sturdy items. Water-level sensing
process may take longer for some items than for others because they
will absorb more water than other fabric types.
High
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.
High
Use this cycle for normally soiled cottons and mixed fabric loads. This
cycle uses spray rinses.
Low
Use this cycle to wash loads of no-iron fabrics such as sport shirts,
blouses, casual business clothes, permanent press, and blends.
Low
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.
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.
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
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
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.
Low
Use this cycle every 30 washes to keep the inside of your washer
fresh and clean. This cycle uses a higher water level. Use with affresh
Washer Cleaner tablet or liquid chlorine bleach to thoroughly clean
the inside of your washer. This cycle should not be interrupted. See
"Washer Care."
IMPORTANT: Do not place garments or other items in the washer
during the Clean Washer with affresh
