The cycle time will be extended if oversudsing occurs or the load is unbalanced. Whitest Whites This cycle is especially designed for cleaning loads of soiled white fabrics with the addition of bleach. Hot washing temperatures assure optimal chlorine bleach activity. An additional rinse provides optimal rinse performance to avoid chlorine residues on your laundry. This cycle combines fast-speed tumbling, longer wash time, and extra high-speed spin to shorten drying time. It also includes an Extra Rinse option, which is automatic with Whitest Whites cycle. Eco Whitest Whites This cycle combines fast-speed tumbling while providing energy savings on hot or warm wash temperature settings and by lengthening the wash time by only 18 minutes. Cleaning and rinse provides optimal rinse performance to avoid chlorine residues on your laundry. Eco Heavy Duty This cycle is designed to provide energy savings by reducing hot water usage, while providing the same wash performance as Heavy Duty. This will lengthen the wash time by only 18 minutes. Heavy Duty Use this cycle to wash loads of sturdy, colorfast fabrics and heavily soiled garments. This cycle combines fast-speed tumbling, longer wash time, and extra high-speed spin to shorten drying times. Bulky Use this cycle to wash normally soiled blankets and comforters. This cycle starts with a soak to thoroughly saturate your large load. This is followed by medium wash action and medium-spin speeds to maintain load balance. Normal Use this cycle to wash loads of no-iron fabrics such as sport shirts, blouses, casual business clothes, permanent press blends, cottons and linens, and synthetic fabrics. This cycle combines medium-speed tumbling, extra high-speed spin, and a load cooling process to reduce wrinkling. Small Load Use this cycle to wash small loads of 2-3 lightly soiled garments that are needed in a hurry. This cycle combines fast-speed tumbling, a shortened wash time, and extra high-speed spin to shorten drying time. Large wash loads will result in the machine increasing the wash time. Delicate Use this cycle to wash sheer fabrics, lingerie, hand washable, and special-care garments. This cycle combines low-speed tumbling and low-speed spin for gentle fabric care. ■ Use mesh garment bags to wash undergarments such as underwire bras, items with strings, and small items such as socks. Silk Use this cycle to clean washable silk and ultra delicate garments (check label instructions to make sure the garment is washable.) This cycle gently tumbles and drains with the lowest spinning to gently clean garments and minimize wrinkling. Garments will contain a higher amount of water at the end of this cycle because of the low spin action. Rinse/Drain & Spin Use this cycle to get a rinse and spin only. This cycle combines fast-speed tumbling and extra high-speed spin. If desired, you can reduce the spin speed by selecting the speed you want from the SPIN SPEED option. Rinse/Drain & Spin is useful for: ■ Loads that need rinsing only. ■ Adding fabric softener to a load using the fabric softener dispenser. Using Drain & Spin: 1. Select Rinse/Drain & Spin cycle. 2. Deselect Extra Rinse option. 15
