SUPER WASH
Use this cycle for heavily soiled or sturdy items.
Cycle combines high-speed wash action and
high-speed spin. Stain Cycle is the default op-
tion for this cycle, but it can be turned off. See
"Changing Cycles, Modifiers and Options,"
page 3-5.
BULKY
Use this cycle to wash large items such as
comforters, sleeping bags and blankets. This
cycle starts with a soak to thoroughly saturate
your large load. This is followed by medium
wash action and medium spin speeds to main-
tain load balance.
SHEETS
Use this cycle for sheets, pillowcases and tow-
els. The wash action of this cycle is designed
to keep large items from tangling and balling
up.
IMPORTANT: For best performance, drop
items in loose heaps evenly around the basket
wall. Do not load items directly on the impeller
for this cycle.
NORMAL
Use this cycle for normally soiled cottons and
mixed fabric loads. Cycle combines high-speed
wash action and high-speed spin.
WRINKLE CONTROL
Use this cycle to wash loads of no-iron fabrics
such as sport shirts, blouses, casual busi-
ness clothes, permanent press and blends.
This cycle uses medium-speed wash action,
a low-speed spin and a cool down process to
reduce wrinkling.
COLORS / JEANS
Use this cycle for lightly soiled, dark or highly
dyed natural fabrics such as cotton that may be
susceptible to dye loss. Cycle uses low to me-
dium-speed wash action and high-speed spin.
For best results use cold or warm water.
QUICK WASH
Use this cycle to wash small, lightly soiled
loads that are needed in a hurry. This short
cycle combines high-speed wash action and
high-speed spin for the best cleaning and
shortened dry times.
