Cold Water
The Cold Wash is ideal for delicate items. Although
its cleaning abilities are not as great with hot or
warm water, it is useful for colors that bleed easily
and for sensitive fabrics.
The Cold Rinse is optional in every cycle and is the
most beneficial for fabrics.
Cold rinses reduce
wrinkling and color fading. In addition, cold rinses
will save money and energy.
NOTE: In wash temperatures colder than 60
o
F
(16
o
C), detergents do not dissolve well. This may
cause ineffective cleaning, or lint and residue to
form.
NOTE: Always follow manufacturer’s care labels.
Wash Temperature Guide
Energy
You can save energy when washing by following a few
guidelines:
1. Heating water accounts for the greatest
energy expense when washing. Save on heating
water by using warm or cold washes as well as
cold rinses.
2. Wash full loads, but do not overload.
