enzymes and the hottest wash water safe for the load.

eliminator with the detergent if needed. Chlorine bleach
should not be used on items containing Lycra™. Fabric
softeners reduce wicking and are not recommended for

of normal reversing tumble wash action are followed by 5

water will drain out and the load will spin slowly for a

Improves washer performance by utilizing sensors to pre-
cisely measure water temperatures. Water temperature
can be affected by the water heater setting and its dis-
tance from the washer, water usage in other parts of the
home and seasonally low ground water temperatures in
some geographic areas. Because detergents work best
in wash water at a minimum of 65° F, select settings with
the symbol for regulated wash and final rinse water
temperatures.
Hot 120° F
Warm 90° F
Cold 65° F
