Select Water Level
Turn the selector knob to the setting
that matches the size of the load. The
pre-set selector knob (not on all
models) can be set to five distinct set-
tings: Extra Small, Small, Medium,
Large, Extra Large.
The infinite selector knob (not on all
models) can be moved to each water
level or any point in between.
If more water is needed once the fill is
complete, move the knob to Reset, then
move it to the desired setting.
Remember, for best washing results,
clothes must circulate freely. If too little
water is used, it may result in poor
washing action, linting or wear on
fabrics. Use the following as a guide to
select the proper water level:

• Extra Large - Use this setting when the
tub is 3/4 to full of clothes.
• Large - Use this setting when the tub is
1/2 to 3/4 full of clothes.
• Medium - Use this setting when the tub is
1/3 to 1/2full of clothes.
• Small - Use this setting when the tub is
1/4 to 1/3 full of clothes.
• Extra Small - Less than 1/4 full of clothes.
NOTE: When laundering permanent
press or delicately constructed items,
washable woolens or loosely knit items,
never use less than the "Medium"
setting. This will minimize shrinkage,
wrinkling and pulling of seams.
