Each cycle has a preset Soil Level (cycle time), Water

Temperature and Spin Speed, and may have preset options.

The preset settings provide the recommended

fabric care for

the selected cycle.

The preset settings can be changed anytime before HOLD TO

START is pressed. Not all options and modifiers are available

with all cycles. (To change settings after the cycle has started,

press PAUSE/CANCEL, then select the desired settings.

Press HOLD TO START to continue the cycle.)

Sanitary

Use this cycle to clean heavily soiled, colorfast fabrics. This

cycle combines a super hot water temperature and fast speed

tumbling to help ensure the removal of heavy soils and stains.

It is recommended

that you set your hot water heater to 120°F

(49°C) to ensure proper performance

during this cycle. The

Sanitary cycle also helps eliminate 99.999% of 3 common

infectious bacteria, even when no bleach is used. Extra high

speed spin helps shorten drying time.

Whitest

Whites

This cycle is especially designed for cleaning loads of soiled

white fabrics with the addition of bleach. Hot washing

temperatures

assure optimal bleach activity. An additional rinse

provides optimal rinse performance to avoid chlorine residues on

your laundry. This cycle combines fast-speed

tumbling, longer

wash time, and extra high speed spin to shorten drying time.

Heavy Duty

Use this cycle to wash loads of sturdy, colorfast fabrics and

heavily to normally soiled garments. This cycle combines

fast-speed

tumbling, longer wash time, and extra high speed spin

to shorten drying times. If the water temperature is lower than

needed for this cycle, the heater will warm the water to the

optimum temperature.

NOTE: Use the Heavy Duty cycle for optimal removal of organic

soils such as blood.

Normal

Use this cycle to wash normally soiled cottons and linens. This

cycle combines medium-speed

tumbling and high-speed spin.

Bulky Items

Use this cycle to wash large items such as blankets and

comforters. This cycle starts with a soak to thoroughly

saturate

your large load. This is followed by medium wash action and

low-speed spin only to maintain load balance.

Quick Wash

Use this cycle to wash small loads of lightly soiled garments that

are needed in a hurry. This cycle combines fast-speed

tumbling,

a shortened wash time, and extra high speed spin to shorten

drying time.

Delicate/Casual

Use this cycle to wash no-iron fabrics and garments labeled

"Permanent Press" or "Wrinkle Free" or that indicate using a

"Gentle" cycle on the care label. This cycle combines low-speed

tumbling and low speed spin to reduce wrinkling.

Silk

Use this cycle to clean washable silk garments. (Check label

instructions

to make sure that garment is washable.) This cycle

gently tumbles and drains without spinning to gently clean

garments and minimize wrinkling. Because there is no spinning

action, garments will contain a higher amount of water at the end

of this cycle.

Wool

Use this cycle to clean machine washable woolen garments.

(Check the care instructions to make sure that garment is

washable.) This cycle features gentle tumbling and low-speed

spin to provide optimum garment care.

Hand Washables

Use this cycle to clean hand washable and special-care

garments. Similar to the way garments are hand washed in a

sink, the wash action of this cycle combines periods of low-

speed tumbling and soaking. Low-speed spin reduces wrinkling.

Soak

Use the Soak cycle to remove small spots of set-in stains on

fabrics. This cycle provides a soak time with warm or cold water

followed by drain. Extra water, a short tumbling phase for equal

distribution of the laundry, and a soaking time without drum

movement improve the removal of set-in stains. Drain without

spin assures gentle treatment, even for delicate articles.

Rinse/Spin

Use this cycle to get a rinse and spin only. This cycle combines

fast-speed tumbling and extra high speed spin. If desired, you

can reduce the spin speed by selecting the speed you want from

the SPIN SPEED modifier.

A Rinse/Spin cycle is useful for

•

Loadsthat

need rinsing only.

•

Adding fabric softener to a load.

Drain/Spin

Use this cycle to drain your washer or to drain and spin your

wash load. The spin speed is preset to extra high. If desired, you

can reduce the spin speed by selecting the speed you want from

the SPIN SPEED modifier.

NOTE: Loads of synthetics, delicate fabrics, handwashables,

and

woolens should be drained with no spin or low spin speed to

avoid fabric stress.
