This cycle is designed to provide the most energy efficiency. High-speed tumbling and an extra high-speed final spin help provide optimal cleaning and reduce drying times. Hot wash temperatures ensure liquid chlorine bleach action. An Extra Rinse helps remove any bleach residue in clothes. Ultra and Normal rinse settings are also available as options. Features an extended wash time to help remove tough stains. Steam for Stains is automatically added for extra cleaning power. This cycle combines low-speed tumbling and low-speed spin for gentle fabric care and reduced wrinkling. Uses an initial soak to completely saturate the load, followed by medium wash speeds and a medium-speed spin to maintain load balance. Uses more water to flush out allergens such as dust mites and pet dander from normally-soiled items. This cycle combines low-speed tumbling and low-speed spin for gentle fabric care and reduced wrinkling. Model: MHW9000** † Sanitize Cycles certified by NSF International, an independent, third party testing and certification organization are those with the sanitize temperature selection available. The certification verified that these cycles reduce 99.9% of bacteria typically found on clothing, bedding, and towels. There is no carryover of bacteria between loads after the cycle is complete. Only cycles with sanitize wash temperature selected have been designed to meet the requirements of NSF Protocol P172 for Sanitizing Effectiveness. †† Allergen Allergen cycle certified by NSF International, an independent, third party testing and certification organization. The certification verified that this cycle reduced tested allergens by at least 95.0% and maintained the water temperature necessary to kill dust mites. Only the allergen cycle has been designed to meet the requirements of NSF Protocol P351 for Allergen Reduction Performance effectiveness. 8
