soiled items.
• For lightly soiled items use “QUICK WASH".
• Soak heavily soiled items.
• Wash using maximum recommended loads.

washer. Simply turn the cycle selector knob to one of
the selections listed on the dial. The washer offers
12
standard wash cycles, combinations of 4 fabric types
and 5 wash temperature settings as well as 6 Special

wash that is to be cleaned or provide special control
features to allow manual operation of the washer in
the modes desired; such as, spinning, soaking or
draining.
Directly to the left of the Cycle Selector window you
will find a table, see Figure 9, that as a reminder,

STANDARD WASH CYCLES
4 Fabric Types:
1. Regutar/Cotton
The cotton settings are intended to be used for
sturdy, hard wearing items made from cotton or
linen, such as:
♦ Play clothes 4 Towels
♦ Work clothes ^ Jeans
♦ Sheets 4 T-shirts, etc.
For best results when cleaning heavily soiled
items use the PREWASH additional function.
Refer to the care label on the clothing for settings
to use. In general, the POWER TEMP BOOST
(5) setting is recommended for sturdy whites and
diapers. While TEMPERATURE BOOST (
4 )
would normally be used for colorfast cotton and
linens. The (3), (2) and ( 1 ) settings save energy
when cleaning lightly soiled cotton. The cold ( 1 )
setting is recommended for very bright coloreds
that are lightly soiled. Using the hottest
temperature safe for the fabric will usually provide
best cleaning results.
