Understanding what happens in each cycle
When the Cycle Control Knob is set to a
number and pulled out, the washer fills (to
the selected load size) before agitation and
timing start. The washer begins agitating
immediately after filling; agitation occurs with
the washer lid up or down.
During agitation, the XTRA ROLL ACTION'^'^
agitator creates a continu­
ous rollover action that
provides a thorough
cleaning of the wash load.
WASH
After agitation starts, the Cycle Control Knob
turns clockwise until it points to an OFF area
and the cycle ends.
NOTES:
• The washer pauses briefly throughout
each cycle. These pauses are normal for
washer operation.
• A Gentle Wash system helps protect your
fabrics by reducing wash agitation speed
during the last few minutes of wash
agitation in the Normal and Permanent
Press cycles.

Understanding normal washer sounds
During drain
The rate that water is drained from your
washer depends on your installation. If water
is drained quickly from the washer, you may
hear air being pulled through the pump. This
happens during the end of draining.
Your new washer may make sounds that
your old one didn’t. Because the sounds are
unfamiliar, you may be concerned about
them. Don’t be; most of them are normal.
The following describes some of the
sounds you may hear and their causes.
During washing
When you select a small load size setting for
a small wash load, your washer has a lower
water level. With this lower water level, you
may hear a clicking sound from the upper
portion of the agitator.

After drain and before spin
When the cycle changes from draining to
spinning, you may hear gears engaging.
