Heavy Duty
Use this cycle to wash loads of sturdy, colorfast fabrics, and heavily soiled garments. This

warm the water to the optimum temperature.

Use this cycle to wash normally soiled cottons and linens. This cycle combines medium-
speed tumbling and high-speed spin.
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 medium-speed spin to help reduce wrinkling.

cycle combines fast-speed tumbling, a shortened wash time, and extra high speed spin to

a higher water level in combination with AFFRESH
thoroughly clean the inside of your washer. This cycle should not be interrupted. See
Cleaning Your Washer in the Washer Care section.

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, like swimsuits.
NOTE: For more delicate loads, when using a Rinse & Spin cycle to rinse swimwear,
change the Speed Spin Modifier setting to Medium or Low to avoid fabric stress.
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, hand washables, and washable woolens should
be drained with no spin or low spin speed to avoid fabric stress.

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.

Normal Washer Sounds
As with any new product, you will hear sounds that you are not accustomed to. You may hear
various sounds when the door is locked and unlocked, and during the washing, rinsing, and
spinning process. Between changes in wash actions, there will be momentary pauses. You
will hear water spraying and splashing during the wash and rinse cycles. These new sounds
and pauses are part of normal washer operation.
