PERATING YOUR WASHER
Selecting a cycle and time
Use the information in this section to help
you make the best cycle selections for your
wash loads. Each cycle is designed for
different types of fabrics and soil levels.
The washer pauses briefly throughout
each cycle. These pauses are normal for
washer operation.
Refer to page 12 to help you understand
what happens during a wash cycle.

system and high spin speeds to shorten
drying time.

fabrics that are heavily soiled.

laundry. (Hot water can set stains.) See
pages 22-24 for stain removal information.

set a new wash cycle.
