Your storage tub holds the wash water from your last wash load. The soils in the wash water settle to the bottom of the storage tub and remain in the storage tub when the wash water is pumped back into the washer. Drain the storage tub after the wash water is pumped back into the washer. 1. Set the Cycle Control Knob to SUDS RETURN. Do not add load items at this time. 2. Pull out the Cycle Control Knob. The washer pumps most of the wash water from the storage tub back into the washer basket. 3. When Suds Return is complete, push in the Cycle Control Knob. 4. Add about l/2 the recommended amount of detergent and your wash load. 5. Turn the Cycle Control Knob clockwise to the desired cycle and wash time. 6. Pull out the Cycle Control Knob to start the washer. 7. Drain the storage tub.
