Page 90: Section 3. Basic Machine Operation
SECTION 3. BASIC MACHINE OPERATION The model MAH4000 and MAH5500A are similar to the MAH3000 washer, with the exception being the MAH4000 and MAH5500A have a recirculation pump in series between the outer tub outlet and the drain pump. When the water pressure switch becomes satisfied (Series 11 and later on the MAH4000 and all the MAH5500A), power is then applied to the recirculation pump.
Page 91: Section 5. Cycle Review
Stain Cycle was added to the Option Switch which adds cycle wash time, vari- ous tumble patterns and an additional rinse with longer tumble times during the rinse. (See Figure 5-1) 16010199 (16008373-03) ©2000 Maytag Appliances Sales Company Revised 7/00...
Page 92 The washer will go into a suds reduction routine, consisting of a series of additional rinse and partial drain cycles to reduce the suds present. (See Troubleshooting & Diagnosis - Clothes Wet at End of Spin) 16010199 (16008373-03) ©2000 Maytag Appliances Sales Company Revised 7/00...
