How Your Washer Works
General
This frontload washer provides some of the same
principles of operation as the typical topload washer. It
senses water level, it dispenses the desired laundry
detergent, tumbles the clothes for good cleaning
action, pumps the water out of the washer and spins
the clothing for preparing for the dryer.
The difference in operation is primarily the rotational
washing cycle that tumbles the clothes in a timer
controlled clockwise, pause and then a counter-
clockwise direction. This reversing cycled tumbling
action provides a much more efficient washing process
which requires less laundry detergent and less water.
The cycle begins by locking the loading door with a
wash fill command from the timer. The water
temperature is determined by the temperature selector.
If the boosted heat water temperature is selected, an
internal heater is activated. This internal heater will
raise the water temperature approximately one degree
per minute up to a final temperature of 140 degrees.
