Cycle Details:
Use Drain & Spin to remove
excess water from the load. Spin
speed can be set to a lower
setting.
Select Drain & Spin; then select
Extra Rinse to add water. The
cycle includes an extra-high-speed
spin. For some fabrics, you may
wish to set the spin speed to a
lower setting.
This cycle eliminates 99.99% of
the most common bacteria found
in clothes, sheets, and towels.
The extra hot wash temperature
ensures sanitization. Check
recommended wash temperature
of your items. Bacteria tested
were K. pneumonia, P. aureginosa,
and S. aureus.
Uses more water to flush out
allergens such as dust mites and
pet dander from normally-soiled
items.
This short wash cycle has an
extra-high-speed spin followed
by intermittent tumbling and fan
activation to circulate air through
the clothes.
Use this cycle for extremely soiled
garments and household items
that need additional cleaning
power.
