What is the Towels/Sheets cycle used for?
This cycle is tuned for absorbent, durable items that become heavy when wet.
It accounts for the way towels hold water and may use stronger wash action or spin behavior than an everyday cycle.
Choose another cycle for: Mixing towels with lightweight garments that can tangle or dry differently.
What this means for your load
For absorbent towels, sheets and similar sturdy fabrics. Check the appliance display for its current estimate.
Why the time may change: Load weight, water absorption and balance correction affect the final duration.

When will it finish?
This variable program depends on the stored cycle, options or sensed load. Use the appliance's current displayed estimate.
Estimated energy and local cost
This range is calculated from the documented cycle characteristics and appliance type. It is deliberately shown as a range because load conditions, temperature selections, sensors and options change consumption.
Planning the Towels/Sheets cycle on the PTW900BPTRS
Towels/Sheets is a model-specific washer program, so its controls and options should be checked against the exact appliance documentation.
On the GE PTW900BPTRS, watch for load size, water temperature, suds control and balance corrections. Leave room for items to move and treat the panel estimate as the best live prediction.
The planning range on this page is 0.1–1.5 kWh; use the ZIP or bill-rate calculator for a local cost estimate. The exact-model reference is linked from products.geappliances.com, while estimates are labeled separately.
