Water Levels and
Load Sizes
The LOAD SIZE SELECTOR lets
you control the amount of water that fills
the washer. The selector can be set at
any water level between HANDWASH-
ABLE and EXTRA LARGE.
WATER LEVELS

HANDWASHABLE
MEDIUM
EXTRA LARGE
Gallons/Liters*
7.8/29.5
13.9/52.6
20,5/77,6
* Approximate fill with load.
To change the water level setting,
move the LOAD SIZE SELECTOR to
RESET. Then move it to the setting you
want To save water and energy,
match the water level to the load
For the best cleaning results, the
load should move freely in the water.
Watch for rollover. An item (like a sock)
should sink in the middle and come
up later on the outside.
Be sure to read pages 11 -13 in
your Laundry Guide. You will find more
information on loading and load sizes.
IMPORTANT:
• The HANDWASHABLE setting is
designed for very small loads. It
uses very little water. Too big a
load in this amount of water may
tear some items.
• Water may splash if you use
very low water levels with REG/
HEAVY. If this happens, move the
LOAD SIZE SELECTOR to RESET. Then
move it to a higher setting.
