Safety Instructions

Control Settings 

for model WCXR1070 and WJSR1070

Load Size

The water level should just cover the clothes. Adjust the load size accordingly. Loosely load clothes

no higher than the top row of holes in the washer tub.

Temperature

Select the water temperature for the wash and rinse cycles. Always follow fabric manufacturer’s care

label or instructions when laundering. 

Wash Cycle

The wash cycle controls the length of the washing process. The chart below will help you match the

wash cycle setting with your clothing.

COTTONS

EASY CARE

For wrinkle-free and permanent press items, and knits.

CASUALS

A gentler way to clean clothes.

PULSE AGITATE

This cycle agitates and then pauses to soak your clothes, simulating hand washing. 

GENTLE

The 

HEAVY 

cycle has three agitate/pause cycles to clean your heavily soiled items.

The 

MEDIUM 

cycle has two agitate/pause cycles, and the 

LIGHT SOIL

has one agitate/pause cycle.

The washer will fill with water to the chosen level when the washer is started in any part of the 

CASUALS 

cycle.

If the washer is started in the pause/soak portion of the cycle, then the 

washer will complete this soak before it begins to agitate. This is normal.
