BENEFITS AND FEATURES
Your washer has several benefits and features that are summarized here. Some items may not apply to your model.
Benefits
gentlewash™ High-Efficiency Wash System
Your new top loading, high-efficiency washer saves you time by
allowing you to do fewer, larger loads. It also conserves
resources and also lowers your water and energy bills by using
the following innovations.
Auto Water Level
This washer senses the load size and composition through a
series of fills and wash motion. It then adjusts the water level for
the best cleaning and rinsing performance. It eliminates the
guesswork. The water level is just right for every wash load size.
NOTE:
You may notice during a cycle that the wash load is not
completely submerged in water. This is normal for your washer.
Auto Temperature Control (ATC)
The Auto Temperature Control (ATC) on this washer electronically
senses and maintains a uniform water temperature by regulating
incoming water temperatures. Using ATC will help dissolve
detergent.
INVIZIBLE™ Agitator
Your new washer works differently than most washers that you
are accustomed to. The most striking difference is that the
washer has an invisible agitator. It uses this new innovative
agitator at the bottom of the wash basket to move your load
through a mixture of water and detergent. The load is moved
from the outside toward the middle with items coming up in the
center and down on the outside edges.
Dispensers
The dispensers make your washer truly automatic. It is
unnecessary for you to return to the washer during the cycle to
add detergent, bleach, or fabric softener.
Laundry additives are added to the load at the proper time in the
wash cycle.
Spin Speeds
This washer is preset to automatically select the spin speed
based on the cycle selected. Depending on your wash load, you
can change the preset speeds. The spin speed on this washer is
nearly twice as fast as that of a conventional washer. You may
notice different sounds during a spin cycle because of this higher
rate of speed.
Stain Treat (CATALYST
®
Cleaning Action)
The Stain Treat option helps to ensure better soil and stain
removal. Stain Treat reduces the need for pretreatment and is
safe for all fabrics. Water flushes through the dispenser to
dissolve the detergent. The detergent mixture is then sprayed
onto the load while the washer spins at low speed. This cleaning
action will last up to 5 minutes depending on the cycle selected.
The washer then stops spinning, fills with water to the
appropriate level and continues washing with the selected cycle.
High Efficiency (HE) Detergent
This washer is designed for High Efficiency (HE) detergent use
only. HE detergents are made to produce the right amount of
suds and give the best performance in low water wash systems.
Features
Innovative Features
Your new washer includes these features that help to reduce
noise, increase the ease of use and improve wash performance.
Electronic Controls
Electronic controls with preset cycles are easy to use whether
you are a beginner or an “expert.”
Quiet Operation
This washer is insulated with sound-dampening materials to
reduce washer operation sounds and noises. On some models,
an additional tub wrap is added for superior vibration and
sound-dampening.
Suspension System
To reduce washer “walk” and “out of balance” conditions, your
new washer combines:
■
4 Spring damper struts to isolate vibration
■
Balance ring at the top and bottom of the wash basket to
minimize vibration
■
Operating software designed to sense and correct
off-balance loads
Clean Washer Cycle
This washer features an easy-to-use Clean Washer cycle that
thoroughly cleans the inside of your washing machine using
higher water volumes in combination with liquid chlorine bleach.
Stainless Steel Basket
The stainless steel basket is corrosion resistant and enables
higher spin speeds for more water extraction, reducing drying
time.
Force Filter Wash/Rinse System
This washer filters 100% of the wash and rinse water. The water
is filtered then recirculated. The force filter traps sand and dirt,
flushing them down the drain, so they are not redeposited onto
the clean clothes.
Save Energy Plus Option
The Save Energy Plus option allows you to increase your energy
savings on the higher temperature cycles (Whitest Whites and
Heavy Duty) while maintaining cleaning performance by
lengthening the wash time by only approximately 5 minutes.
Delay Start
Delay Start allows you to load your washer and pause the start of
the cycle for up to 13 hours.
End of Cycle Signal
The End of Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the
wash cycle is finished. This signal is helpful when you are
removing items from the washer as soon as it stops.
