Controls
Always follow instructions on fabric care labels.
Note:
There is no need to select a water level
because the washer automatically adjusts the
water level to the type and size of wash load.
TEMPERATURES
- This determines water temperatures
for washing and rinsing. For example, the Warm/Cold
setting provides a warm water wash and a cold water
final rinse.
Note:
Detergents are not as effective at wash water
temperatures below 65°F (18.3°C).
The following chart suggests wash/rinse temperatures
for basic fabric types.
CYCLE SIGNAL
- A signal will sound at the end of the
cycle when the Cycle Signal is set to

can be affected by the hot water heater setting and
seasonally low ground water temperatures in some
geographic areas. Since detergents work best in wash
water at a minimum of 65° F, select an
Auto Temp

to regulate the temperature of the warm and
cold wash water in any cycle.

Auto Temp Warm/Cold
and
Auto

settings is regulated to
approximately 100° F. and the wash water in the
Auto

setting is regulated to approximately
70° F. Rinse water temperatures are not regulated.
