What happens in each
cycle
Each cycle has been designed for
different kinds of fabrics.
When the Cycle Control Knob is set
to a number and pulled out, the wash
er fills before agitation and timing
starts. After agitation starts, the knob
turns clockwise until it points to OFF
and the cycle ends.
The washer will pause briefly
throughout each cycle. These pauses
are normal for washer operation.
Gentle Wash System
For better fabric care in the REGULAR
and PERMANENT PRESS cycles, the
agitation speed is reduced during the
last few minutes of wash agitation
time.
