Auto Temp Control

ATC (Auto Temp Control) electronically senses and maintains a

uniform water temperature. ATC regulates incoming hot and cold water. The ATC is automatically turned ON when a cycle is selected. (See "Preset Cycle Settings" in "Cycles.")

ATC ensures consistent cleaning.

ATC works for the wash temperature with Extra Hot/Cold, Hot/Cold, Warm/Warm, Warm/Cold, and Cold/Cold settings.

The Cold rinse temperatures depend on the cold water at your faucet.

For the Tap Cold/Cold setting, both wash and rinse temperatures depend on the cold water at your faucet.

ATC works for the rinse temperature with the Warm/Warm setting. The cold rinse temperature depends on the cold water at your faucet.

Refer to this chart for suggested load types and their corresponding cycles. Listed to the right are the options available to each of these washer cycles.

LAUNDRY TIPS

Preparing clothes for washing

Follow these recommendations to help you prolong the life of your garments.

Close zippers, snaps, and hooks to avoid snagging other items. Remove pins, buckles, and other hard objects to avoid scratching the washer interior. Remove non-washable trim and ornaments.

Empty pockets and turn them inside-out.

Turn down cuffs; brush away lint and dirt.

Turn synthetic knits inside-out to avoid pilling.

Tie strings and sashes so they will not tangle.

Mend tears, loose hems, and seams.

Treat spots and stains.

Stained or wet garments should be washed promptly for best results.

Sorting

Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled ones, even if they would normally be washed together. Separate lint-givers (towels, chenille) from lint-takers (corduroy, synthetics, permanent press). When possible, turn lint-givers inside-out.

Separate dark colors from light colors, colorfast items from noncolorfast items.

Sort by fabric and construction (sturdy cottons, knits, delicate items).

One of the standout features across these models is the range of wash cycles available.
