Wondering if anyone has the operating instructions for the A212. Would like to read about all the features and such my washer has, if anyone happens to have it saved on their device!

There's not much to it. Fully variable water level between the minimum and maximum choice. Slide it to Reset if needing to *increase* the level *after* agitation begins, then back down to the (higher than original) desired level. Three wash temps ... Hot, Warm, Cold ... all with cold rinse. 1-speed motor. Agitation and spin are both high speed. Perm Press has a cool down which partially drains the (warm or hot) wash water, then refills with cold to cool the fabric so as to avoid set-in compression wrinkles if spun while warm or hot. No need to use Perm Press if washing in cold water, the cool down will have no effect. Although, you can run any load on Perm Press to get a sort-of extra rinse via the cool down process. Delicate cycle is Maytag's Fabric-matic workaround for lack of a slow agitation speed. Wash and rinse alternates periods of agiation and soaking to provide a more gentle effect. Should be a filter cartridge in top of the agitator. Pull it out to clean. The separate removable cup on top is a liquid fabric softener dispenser. |
