WASHER CYCLE DESCRIPTIONS

This information covers several different models. Your washer may vary from the model shown and may not have all the cycles and
features described.

Water Level Control

Adjust to load size. Clothes should move freely. To change to a
higher water level after agitating starts, you may turn knob to
desired setting. On models with Variable Water Level Control, you
should turn the knob to Reset, then to desired setting.

Water Temperature Control

You should select the wash/rinse water temperature based on the
type of load you are washing. Always use the warmest wash
water safe for the fabric and follow garment label instructions.
Some models have AUTO TEMPERATURE CONTROL (ATC). ATC
electronically senses and maintains a uniform water temperature
by regulating the temperature of incoming hot and cold water.

On models without AUTO TEMPERATURE CONTROL (ATC) that
do have a Warm/Warm temperature setting, the warm wash will
be followed by an “Energy Saving” cold rinse followed by warm
spray rinses. This saves energy while providing the same
effective rinse performance.

Cycle Selector (Timer) Control

Permanent Press I

A load cooling spray rinse reduces wrinkling.

Automatic 2nd Rinse

Removes excess detergent residue. May be automatically added
to the Ultra Clean or Permanent Press cycles. Set the RINSE
OPTIONS Control to 2nd Rinse before you start the washer. You
won’t have to come back later to select a second rinse.

Permanent Press II

During the wash cycle, the timer reaches PAUSE, and the washer
cools down the load by replacing some of the wash water with
rinse water. This helps to reduce wrinkling.

Ultra Clean

You may select this cycle for most loads.

Prewash

Helps to remove heavy soils and stains that need pretreatment. This
cycle should be followed by an Ultra Clean or Permanent Press
cycle with additional detergent.

Soak

Features agitation followed by unlimited soak time to help
remove heavy soils and stains that need pretreatment. After the
soaking has finished, you should reset the washer to a Spin
setting to remove water. The Soak cycle should be followed by an
Ultra Clean or Permanent Press cycle with additional detergent.

Rinse & Spin

May be used when an extra rinse is needed to remove additional
detergent residue. Set WATER LEVEL Control, then WATER
TEMPERATURE Control. Set RINSE OPTIONS Control to One
Rinse and set the SPEEDS Control. You should then set Cycle
Selector (Timer) Control to a Rinse setting.

Spin Only

A drain and spin may help shorten drying times for some fabrics
by removing excess water. Set RINSE OPTIONS Control to One
Rinse and set the SPEEDS Control. You should then set Cycle
Selector (Timer) Control to a Spin setting.
