Cycles
Cycles can be selected by turning the Cycle control knob to the
desired cycle. Each cycle is designed for different types of fabric
and soil levels.
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/OFF, 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 120ºF
(49ºC) 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/Casual
Use this cycle to wash normally soiled cottons and linens. This
cycle combines medium-speed tumbling and high-speed spin.
Rapid 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
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.
Handwash
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
Loads that 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.
Preset cycle settings
Each cycle has a preset Soil Level (cycle time), Water
Temperature, and Spin Speed. The preset settings provide the
recommended fabric care for the selected cycle. See chart.
