Allergen Reduction Performance
of Residential and Commercial,
The allergen option will kill all dust mites and eliminate at least 95% of pet dander. Since higher temperatures are required, please check fabric care labels to prevent damage.
EXTENDED FRESH
Select extended fresh to apply periodic rinses with load tumbling after the wash cycle is com- plete to keep clothes left in the washer fresh for up to 12 hours. When you are ready to remove the load during the extended fresh segment, you must press cancel to end the cycle and open the door.
SHRINK GUARD
Select shrink guard to help relax load after final spin by agitating, preventing shrinking and wrin- kling.
ADD MORE WATER
Increase the water fill level of the agitation portion of any wash cycle.
STAIN PRETREAT
Stain pretreat uses a special 10 minute soak/ pretreat agitation before the main wash. It fills initially with detergent and cold water to prevent protein stains from setting, then the internal heater is activated to heat the wash water to remove non- protein based stains. Can be used with prewash for the toughest stains.
FRESHWATER RINSE
Use this option when additional rinsing is desired to remove excess dirt or detergent. It is recom- mended for heavily soiled loads or if household members have sensitive skin. It is available with all cycles except fast wash.
EXTRA SPIN
Use this option to add several minutes to the final spin at the selected speed. This will improve water extraction, decrease drying time and save energy. Extra spin is available with all cycles except fast wash, delicates, hand wash and spin only.
PREWASH
Select this option to add a short wash period prior to the normal, colors, casual, active wear, whites, and heavy duty cycles. Heavily soiled and stained loads will prewash in cold water for 5 minutes. The water will drain and the load will automatically advance to the selected wash cycle.
See Step 5 in the “Operating Your Washer” section in this guide for details on adding detergent to the “Pre- Wash” cup in the dispenser.
