This section describes the available wash cycles and will help
you make the best cycle selections for your wash loads. Each
Water Temp
Use for
cycle is designed for different types of fabric and soil levels.
Hot
Whites and pastels
Heavy soils
Warm
Bright colors
Moderate to light soils
Cold
Colors that bleed or fade
Light soils
NOTE: In wash water temperatures
colder than 65°F (18°C),
detergents do not dissolve well. Soils can be difficult to
remove. Some fabrics can retain wear wrinkles and have
increased pilling (the formation of small lint-like balls on the
surface of garments).
(OPTIONAL) An Automatic Temperature Control (ATC)
electronically
senses and maintains a uniform water
temperature
by regulating incoming hot and cold water.
•
Even in cold wash, some warm water is let into the
washer to maintain a minimum temperature of
approximately
65°F (18°C).
•
Warm wash is maintained at approximately
90°F (32°C).
•
Warm rinse is maintained at approximately
70°F (21°C) for
all warm rinse settings. To reduce wrinkling, the warm
rinse is regulated to be cooler than the warm wash.
8. (RINSE OPTIONS) You can customize your wash by adding
rinse Options to your cycle selections. A cycle will "start"
where you set the Cycle Selector Control (Timer) knob. See
"Selecting a Cycle and Time." The cycle will "stop" where you
set the Options Control knob. This knob has settings for:
•
One Rinse. Use this option for one rinse after a basic
wash cycle, Rinse & Spin, and Drain & Spin.
•
2rid Rinse. A 2rid Rinse can be added to the Ultra Clean
and Whitest Whites cycles.
9. Set the Speeds Control knob according to the type of fabric
in the load. See "Selecting Wash/Spin Speeds."
10. Push in the Cycle Selector Control (Timer) knob and turn it to
the wash cycle you want. Reduce the wash time when using
a small load size setting. See "Selecting a Cycle and Time."
•
The washer pauses briefly throughout
each cycle. These
pauses are normal. Refer to "Normal Sounds" to learn more
about the sounds you may hear during a wash cycle.
•
Refer to "Understanding
Washer Cycles" to learn what
happens during a wash cycle.
NOTE: Use this control to choose agitation time and to start the
washer. For heavy soil and sturdy fabrics, use the full time. Use
less time for light soil and delicate fabrics.

CATALYST _ Cleaning
Action
Your washer uses the CATALYST®Cleaning Action to help ensure
better soil and stain removal from your wash load. CATALYST_
Cleaning Action reduces the need for pretreatment and is safe for
all fabrics. CATALYST_ Cleaning Action is preset in the Whitest
Whites cycle and is available in the Ultra Clean cycle. For the best
cleaning performance,
use this selection with the Heavy Duty
Speed selection.
NOTE: The CATALYST_ Cleaning Action is available on all SPEED
control settings.
How CATALYST ® Cleaning Action works
1.
Before agitation begins, detergent is automatically
released
into a special chamber that mixes the detergent with a small
amount of water to create a sudsy cleaning solution.
2. Spinning spreads out the clothes.
3. The cleaning solution showers onto the top of the fabrics. The
solution is pulled through the clothes, and the detergent
enzymes attach to soils and stains, lifting them away.
4. The washer fills to the selected water level and completes the
selected cycle.
