Selecting a Cycle and Time
This section describes the available wash cycles and will
help you make the best cycle selections for your wash
loads. Each cycle is designed for different types of fabric
and soil levels.
■ The washer pauses briefly throughout each cycle.
These pauses are normal. Refer to “Normal washer
sounds” to learn more about the sounds you may hear
during a wash cycle.
■ Refer to “Understanding washer cycles” to learn what
happens during a wash cycle.
NOTE: This manual covers several different models. The
washer you purchased will not have all of the cycles
described.
Heavy cycle
This cycle features high-speed agitation followed by brief
periods of low-speed agitation for cleaning sturdy fabrics
and heavily soiled loads that need maximum soil removal.
Select Super Wash or Regular depending on whether your
load is moderately or heavily soiled. For improved
cleaning, use twice the amount of detergent
recommended for a wash cycle. The Heavy cycle features
Extra Rinse as part of the cycle.
Normal cycle
This cycle features high-speed agitation followed by a brief
period of low-speed agitation for cleaning cottons and
linens. High spin speeds shorten drying time. Select 6 to
15 minutes of wash time, depending on your model, for
loads that are moderately or heavily soiled. For lightly
soiled loads, use the shortest time setting.
Super Wash - Select the Super Wash setting to wash
heavily soiled loads that need maximum soil removal. Use
twice the amount of detergent recommended for a wash
cycle.
Permanent Press cycle
This cycle starts with high-speed agitation and then steps
down to low-speed agitation for cleaning permanent press
blends and synthetic fabrics. To minimize wrinkling, this
cycle features a cool-down rinse and a low-speed final
spin. Select 6 to 10 minutes of wash time, depending on
your model, to clean lightly to moderately soiled loads.
Delicate cycle
This cycle features a low-speed agitation for gentle soil
removal from delicate items and washable knits. Low spin
speeds minimize wrinkling. Select 3 to 9 minutes of wash
time, depending on your model, to clean lightly to
moderately soiled loads.
Hand Washables cycle
This cycle features a series of brief, low-speed agitations
and short soaks to gently clean special-care items. Low
spin speeds minimize wrinkling. Wash small loads. If items
appear to be floating (due to trapped air), stop the washer
by pushing in the Cycle Control knob. Push items down
into the washer. Restart the washer.
Quick Wash cycle
This cycle features low-speed agitation for gentle soil
removal, while providing high spin speeds to shorten
drying times. Select this cycle for small loads of lightly
soiled items that you need in a hurry.
Soak cycle
This cycle features brief periods of agitation and soak time
to remove heavy soils and stains that need pretreatment.
Use warm water when soaking laundry. Hot water can set
stains. Use the amount of detergent or presoak additive
recommended by the manufacturer. When the Soak cycle
ends, add detergent and start a new wash cycle.
