Quick Wash
Use this cycle to wash small, lightly soiled loads that are needed
in a hurry. This short cycle combines high-speed wash action and
high-speed spin for the best cleaning and shortened dry times.
Wool
This cycle combines low-speed wash and low-speed spin action
to clean items labeled as “Machine Washable Wool” on the
garment care label. Deep Clean option is not available in this
cycle.
Delicate/Handwash
Use this cycle to wash lightly soiled garments indicating “Machine
Washable Silks” or “Gentle” cycle on the care label. This cycle
uses intermittent low speed wash action and low-speed spin for
optimal fabric care.
When washing waterproof/water-resistant items such as plastic
lined mattress pads, shower curtains, tarps, jackets, or sleeping
bags, select the lowest spin speed setting available for the cycle
and washer model being used.
Garments are labeled “Handwash” because:
The fiber construction may be sensitive to wash action.
The fabric contains sensitive dyes that may bleed.
Soak (on some models)
This cycle is preset for a 41-minute cycle and soak time can be
adjusted according to your needs by selecting Soil Level. After the
selected soak period has ended, the washer will drain but does
not spin the load.
NOTE: Automatic bleach dispensing is not part of the soak cycle.
Rinse & Spin
Use this cycle to get a deep rinse followed by a high-speed spin.
The time display will include an estimate of how long it will take to
fill and drain the washer.
When to use Rinse & Spin:
For loads that need rinsing only.
For completing a cycle after the power has been off.
To use or change Rinse & Spin setting:
1. Turn knob to RINSE & SPIN until the Rinse & Spin indicator
light glows.
2. Press START.
Drain & Spin
An extra drain and spin may help shorten drying times for some
heavy fabrics or special-care items. Drain & Spin may also be
used for draining the washer after canceling a cycle or completing
a cycle after a power failure.
To use or change Drain & Spin setting:
1. Turn knob to DRAIN & SPIN until the Drain & Spin indicator
light glows.
2. Press START.
Clean Washer
Use the Clean Washer cycle once a month 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 washing machine.
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 cycle. Use this cycle with an
empty wash tub.
Additional Features
These lights show which portion of the cycle the washer is
operating. They also indicate when you can add other garments to
the wash load.
Load is Done
The Done light stays on until the lid is opened or the Power or
Pause/Cancel button is pressed.
Indicator lights
An indicator light shows which Cycle, Modifiers, and Options you
have selected.
Estimated Time Remaining
When a wash cycle is started, the estimated time remaining for
the cycle, including fills and drains, will be displayed. The time will
count down to the end of the cycle.
Modifiers
Modifiers allow you to further customize your cycles and save
energy.
Soil Level
Soil level (wash time) is preset for each wash cycle. See “Preset
Cycle Settings” in “Cycles.” As you press the Soil Level pad, the
cycle time (minutes) will increase or decrease in the Estimated
Time Remaining display and a different wash time will appear. To
get the minimum wash time, press the pad until the indicator light
next to Light Soil Level illuminates. This is the shortest wash time
available for that cycle.
For most loads, use the time recommended in the preset
cycle settings.
For heaviliy soiled and sturdy fabrics, press Soil Level to
select more wash time, if needed.
For lightly soiled and delicate fabrics, press Soil Level to
select less wash time, if needed.

light glows.
