OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Í
NOTE
To change the temperature once the cycle has begun,
press the Pause button, make the new selection and
press Start again.
Auto Temp wash water temperatures are automatically
regulated to maximize detergent effectiveness and
improve washing performance. The water heater setting
and its distance from the washer, water usage in other
parts of the home, and seasonally low ground water
temperature in some geographic areas can affect water
temperature.
Sanitize (on select models)
This setting sanitizes heavily soiled colorfast fabrics
such as towels, bedding, and children’s clothing by
killing 99.9% of bacteria using wash water heated with
a boost heater to 152° F (67° C). Cold water is used to
cool and rinse the load.
NSF Protocol P172
Sanitization Performance of Residential
and Commercial, Family-Sized Clothes
Washers
Hot
Use this setting for heavily soiled white or colorfast
cottons and blends.
Warm
Use this setting for normally soiled white or colorfast
cottons or blends.
Cool (on select models)
Use this setting for normally soiled sheets, casual items
and washable woolens.
Cold
Some warm water will automatically blend with cold
tap supply to achieve a precise Auto Temp Cold. Use
this setting for lightly soiled non-colorfast items, knits,
delicates, and hand washables.
Cold Water Clean
Wash and rinse temperatures are equivalent to
temperature of cold tap supply. Use this selection for
fabrics and colors that are prone to dye transfer. For
use with cold water detergents.
SPIN SPEED
SOIL LEVEL
Maximum, High, Medium and Low spin speeds are
available for each cycle. The spin speed and/or duration
of fi nal spin vary from model to model and cycle to cycle.
Increasing the spin speed will extract more water,
decrease drying time and conserve energy. Decreasing
the spin speed will reduce wrinkling.
Select Low spin speed to gently spin items that should
be line dried.
Use No Spin to omit the fi nal spin at the end of the
cycle. The load will be very wet. Remove items from the
wash drum to drip dry or select a Spin Only or Rinse
and Spin cycle to remove excess water at a more
convenient time.
Adjust the wash time based on the soil level of each load.
Heavy, Normal, and Light Soil Levels are available.
Í
NOTE
Only sanitizing cycles have been designed to meet the
requirements of NSF P172 protocol for sanitization
effi cacy.
Cycle Settings
WASH WATER TEMPERATURE
Follow the fabric care label instructions
on items to be washed.
For best results
To change the temperature, press the Temperature button
to scroll to the desired setting. Select a wash water
temperature according to fi ber content, colorfastness and
soil level. A cold water rinse saves energy and reduces
wrinkling.
To protect your fabrics, not all temperatures are available
with every cycle. The indicator will not light if the setting
is not available with that cycle. The temperature selected
for the cycle will be remembered and recalled each time
that cycle is selected in the future.
