Cycle Selection
(continued)
Perm Press Cycle
This cycle provides up to 12 minutes of normal agitation and
a fast spin for cottons and blends with a no-iron finish. A
cool down spray rinse helps reduce wrinkling.
Delicates Cycle
Provides 6 minutes of gentle agitation and a slow spin for the
gentle care of knits and delicate items.
Soak/Prewash Cycle
Soak
• Use Soak to treat heavily soiled or stained items. Soak
provides 3 minutes of agitation and 12 minutes of
soaking time in cold water. The load then advances into
the Prewash portion of the cycle.
• Use the amount of detergent recommended for a normal
wash cycle. If desired, use a bleach or a soaking agent safe
for the fabric.
• Follow Soak with a complete wash cycle using a half dose
of detergent.
Prewash
• Use Prewash to loosen soils before washing and to help
remove protein-based stains such as milk, grass and
blood. Prewash provides 3 minutes of agitation before
the water drains.
Use the amount of detergent
recommended for a normal wash cycle.
• The Prewash water temperature is the same as the wash
water temperature selected. To avoid setting protein
stains, select cold water.
• Follow Prewash with a complete wash cycle using a half
dose of detergent.

Cycle Settings
For best results, follow washing instructions on fabric
care labels.
Wash/Rinse Temperature
Turn the Wash/Rinse Temperature knob to select the wash
water temperature suitable for the fiber content and soil
level of each load. A cold water rinse saves energy and
reduces wrinkling.
If a cold rinse is selected, the washer will fill with cold water
during rinse, followed by a cold spray rinse during final spin.
If a warm rinse is selected, the washer will fill with cold water
during rinse, followed by a warm spray rinse during final
spin.
To conserve energy, the hot wash water is regulated to
approximately 100° F. Warm and cold wash and rinse water
temperatures are not regulated and will depend upon the
incoming water temperature.
The following chart suggests wash/rinse temperatures for
basic fabric types.
Fabric Type
Heavily soiled white/colorfast
cotton, perm press
Normally soiled white/colorfast
cotton, perm press
Lightly soiled cottons and
perm press,Noncolorfast fabrics,
knits, delicates, hand washables
Washable woolens
Water Level
Turn the Water Level knob to select a water level appropriate
for the load size. For best results, DO NOT overload. Add
items loosely to the tub. The dry load should not be higher
than the top of the agitator vanes. There should be enough
water in the tub for items to move freely.
To increase the water level after the wash cycle begins, turn
the Load Size knob to Reset and hold. When water begins to
enter the tub, turn the knob to the desired setting.

Energy Saving Tips

• Wash full loads. Oversize loads use extra energy. Undersize
loads waste energy.
• When small wash loads cannot be avoided, use lower water
levels.
• Select the appropriate cycle and time for each load. Shorten
wash times for lightly soiled loads.
• To reduce drying time, select a fast spin speed to remove
more water from heavy items such as towels and jeans.
Wash/Rinse
• Use warm water to wash most loads. Limit hot water washes
Temperature
to heavily soiled and white loads. Use cold water for lightly
Hot/Cold
soiled items and rinsing.
• Operate the washer in early morning and late evening when
Warm/Cold
utility demands are low.
Cold/Cold
• Follow proper laundry procedures to avoid rewashing.
