Use this cycle for machine washable delicate 

garments. This cycle uses intermittent wash 

action with cool water and slow spin to  

gently care for fine washables and avoid 

shrinkage. Place small items in mesh bags 

before washing.

Use this cycle to wash small loads of 2–3 

lightly soiled garments that are needed in  

a hurry. This cycle combines a fast agitation, 

a shortened wash time, and a high-speed 

spin to shorten drying times.

Use this cycle for lightly soiled office wear. 

The cycle uses a warm wash, a cooldown, 

and medium spin speeds for better wrinkle 

performance.

This cycle uses cold water wash and a  

concentrated detergent solution to gently  

lift out stains and care for fabrics. Settings 

may be adjusted as desired, but must use 

only cold water settings.
