About the control settings.
Load Size
The water level should just cover the clothes. Adjust the load size accordingly. Loosely load clothes
no higher than the top row of holes in the washer tub.
Custom Care Wash/Spin Speeds (on some models)
The agitator moves clothes around for a cleaner wash; the basket spins later in the cycle to release
water from the load. The Wash/Spin Speed dial sets the speed of both the agitator and the basket.
With Normal wash speed , the agitator will move at a high speed for the first few minutes. It will then
step down to a moderate speed. This will help to maximize soil removal while reducing the wear on
your clothing. Use for cottons, denims and play clothes.
With Gentle wash speed , the agitator moves slower. Use for delicate and knit items.
The Fast spin speed is for durable items.
The Slow spin speed is for delicate items like sweaters and lingerie. When using Slow spin speed,
clothes will be less dry than when using Fast spin speed.
Temperature
Select the water temperature for the wash and rinse cycles. Always follow fabric manufacturer’s care
label or instructions when laundering. Follow the water temperature guide on the washer lid.
Wash Cycle
The wash cycle controls the length of the washing process. When choosing the cycle, the Cycle
Selector knob can be pointed anywhere within the colored box. The knob can be turned in either
direction. Turning the Cycle Selector knob after starting a cycle will stop the washer and reset the
cycle to the new selection. Press START to begin the new cycle selection.
The Cycle Indicator Lights show what stage the washer is in. The wash time is the length of the wash
agitation. The 6 MIN light will remain lit during drain and spin. When the Selector knob is set to a
new cycle the Indicator Lights will flash momentarily, showing what stages the cycle will go through.
The chart below will help you match the wash cycle setting with your clothing.
COTTONS For heavy to lightly soiled cottons, household linens, work and play clothes.
EASY CARE For wrinkle-free and permanent press items, and knits.
DELICATES For lingerie and special-care fabrics with light soils. Provides periods of agitation and soak during wash
and rinse.
EXTRA HEAVY For heavily soiled and heavy-duty fabrics. This cycle provides a longer agitation.
15 MIN/30 MIN For heavily soiled clothes. Begins with a brief agitation, soaks for a specified period of time, then moves
AUTO SOAK through the rest of the cycle automatically.
START
Press START to begin the cycle. Pressing START again or raising the lid will PAUSE the cycle and
the Cycle indicator light will blink.
