The normal cycle is the default cycle for the SideKick washer.
If you press the start button without selecting a specific cycle, the normal cycle will begin using the default settings.
This wash cycle is ideal when you have a few articles of lightly soiled cotton, t-shirts, towels, or jeans.
The Intimates cycle can be used to wash delicate items such as lingerie, or shear, and lacy clothing that can easily be damaged in a normal cycle.
Do not use this cycle for silk items.
The hand wash cycle can be used to wash drinkable woolen, or hand washable items that require delicate care.
Make sure to only wash items that are labeled hand wash when selecting the cycle.
Keep your favorite yoga outfits, looking brand new the active wear cycle can be used to wash performance garments that are specifically designed and treated for sports and heavy activity.
Pretreat stains with the Rinse + Spin cycle which can be used to rinse and spin a load separately from a regular cycle.
This can be helpful in preventing stains from setting in fabrics.
You can also start a spin only cycle by Selecting the extra rinse button repeatedly until the spin only indicator light illuminates.

The warm water option is selected by default on some of the available cycles.
It can be selected or deselected by pressing the warm water button.
The temperature cannot be set on the Rinse + Spin or Tub Clean cycles.
Use the extra rinse option to add an extra rinse to all selected cycles besides the tub clean cycle.

Make sure the tub is empty, add liquid chlorine bleach mixed solution or tub cleaner.
