Whites
This cycle introduces liquid chlorine bleach to the load at the
proper time for improved whitening of your heavily soiled white
fabrics. This cycle combines high speed wash action and high
speed spin. For maximum soil and stain removal, liquid chlorine
bleach can be used in the liquid bleach dispenser. This cycle can
also be used for sturdy color fabrics such as towels without liquid
chlorine bleach.
Bulky
Use this cycle to wash large items such as comforters, sleeping
bags, and blankets. This cycle starts with a soak to thoroughly
saturate your large load. This is followed by medium wash action
and medium spin speeds to maintain load balance.
Sheets
Use this cycle for sheets, pillowcases, and light blankets or throws.
The wash action of this cycle is designed to keep large items from
tangling and balling up.
IMPORTANT: For best performance, drop items in loose heaps
evenly around the basket wall. Do not load items directly on the
impeller for this cycle.
Normal
Use this cycle for normally soiled cottons and mixed fabric loads.
This cycle combines high speed wash action and medium speed
spin. A Water Save Spray Rinse is a preset cycle setting for this
cycle.
Heavy Duty
Use this cycle for heavily soiled or sturdy cotton items. Cycle
combines high speed wash action and high speed spin. A Water
Save Spray Rinse is a preset cycle setting for this cycle.
Colors/Towels
Use this cycle for lightly soiled, colored clothing or towels. This
cycle is a good choice for garments with a wrinkle free finish. This
cycle uses medium speed wash action and medium speed spin.
Hand Wash
This cycle combines low-speed wash and low-speed spin action
to clean items labeled as “Machine Washable” on the garment
care label. Pre Soak and Deep Clean options are not available
in this cycle.
