This cycle is designed to provide the most energy efficiency. High-speed tumbling and a 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. Features an extended wash time to help remove tough stains. Stain Clean/Steam for Stains (depending on model) 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. * All temperature selections feature a Cold rinse, except Warm/Warm, which features a warm wash and a warm rinse. 1 Stain Clean on non-Steam models. Steam for Stains on Steam models. See "Control Panel and Features" for additional information.

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. 6
