Load Size
Turn the  Load Size 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.

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.

• Use warm water to wash most loads. Limit hot water washes

to heavily soiled and white loads. Use cold water for lightly
soiled items and rinsing.

• Operate the washer in early morning and late evening when

utility demands are low.

• Follow proper laundry procedures to avoid rewashing.

Cycle Selection (continued)

Knits/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.

To conserve energy, the hot wash water is regulated to
approximately 120° F.  Warm and cold wash and rinse
water temperatures are not regulated.

The following chart suggests wash/rinse temperatures for
basic fabric types.
