Q. What’s the best cycle to use if I have stains on my laundry?
A. For most fabrics, select the Heavy Duty cycle with the Stain Treat soil level. For heavy-duty fabrics, select the Super
Wash cycle. Pretreat the stains with a laundry pre-treat product.
Q. How large of a load can I wash in my Maytag ® Neptune ® washer?
A. The tub can be loaded loosely up to the MAX. LOAD line, but do not pack down the load. If the load is heavily soiled it
is very important not to overload the washer.
Q. At the end of the cycle my load comes out wetter than normal. What causes this?
A. During tumble and spin, the washer may have had difficulty getting to a full spin speed because the load was not evenly
distributed.This can occur with very small loads, heavy or bulky items or a load in which too much detergent was used,
causing over-sudsing.
Q. My laundry items seem to be very wrinkled at the end of the cycle. What can I do to correct the
problem?
A. Wrinkling is caused by the combination of heat and pressure. Be sure wrinkle-free or permanent press fabrics are washed
on the Normal/Wrinkle Control cycle, and a Cold rinse is used. (See pg. 4 for Wash/Rinse Temperatures). DO NOT
USE MAX EXTRACT SPIN.
Q. My whites are not as white as I’d like. What can I do?
A. Wash white loads using the Whites fabric selection. Select the Hot/Cold temperature setting and put 1/3 cup of
chlorine bleach in the bleach dispenser.The bleach will be dispensed in the first rinse to provide optimal whitening. Maytag ®
recommends a hot water wash temperature of 120-140˚ F (49˚- 60˚ C).
