Cycle Details:
Use this cycle to wash lightly soiled
garments indicating "Machine Washable
Silks" or "Gentle" cycle on the care label.
Place small items in mesh garment bags
before washing. This cycle uses a higher,
preset water level.
Use this cycle to wash small, lightly soiled
loads of 2-3 items that are needed in a hurry.
This cycle features a spray rinse.
Use this cycle to wash loads of no-iron fabrics
such as sport shirts, blouses, casual business
clothes, permanent press, and blends.
Use this cycle for normally soiled cottons
and mixed fabric loads. This cycle features
a spray rinse.
Use this cycle to wash large items such as
jackets and small comforters. The washer will
fill with enough water to wet down the load
before the wash portion of the cycle begins,
and uses a higher water level than other
cycles. Do not overload basket.
Use this cycle for heavily soiled or sturdy
garments. Water-level sensing process may
take longer for some items than for others
because they will absorb more water than
other fabric types.
Deep Clean and Extra Rinse are default
options, but may be turned off. For maximum
soil removal use liquid chlorine bleach.
Use this cycle to soak small spots of set in
stains on fabrics. The washer will use
intermittent agitation and soaking. After time
has expired, water will drain, but the washer
will not spin. Cycle is complete.
Combines a rinse and spin for loads requiring
an additional rinse cycle or to complete a
load after power interruption. Spin speed is
selectable; default is high. This cycle uses a
higher, preset water level.Also use for loads
that require rinsing only.
This cycle uses a spin to shorten drying times
for heavy fabrics or special-care items washed
by hand. Use this cycle to drain washer after
cancelling a cycle or completing a cycle after
a power failure.
Use this cycle every 30 washes to keep the
inside of your washer fresh and clean. This cycle
uses a higher water level. Use with AFFRESH
washer cleaner tablet or liquid chlorine bleach to
thoroughly clean the inside of your washer. This
cycle should not be interrupted. See "Cleaning
Your Washer".
IMPORTANT: Do not place garments or other
items in the washer during the Clean Washer
with AFFRESH™ cycle. Use this cycle with an
empty wash tub.
