OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

This manual covers many models and not all cycles, options, or features listed are available on every model. Console shown above for reference only. Your model may differ.

Cycle Settings, continued

The temperature selected for the cycle will be remembered and recalled each time that cycle is selected in the future. To return to factory settings, press the Start/Pause and Select buttons at the same time and hold until the signal sounds.

￿NOTE

To change the temperature once the cycle has begun, press the Start/Pause button, make the new selection and press Start/Pause again.

Auto Temp wash water temperatures are automatically regulated to maximize detergent effectiveness and improve washing performance. The water heater setting and its distance from the washer, water usage in other parts of the home, and seasonally low ground water temperature in some geographic areas can affect water temperature.

Auto Temp Sanitize (on select models) This setting sanitizes heavily soiled colorfast fabrics such as towels, bedding, and children’s clothing by killing 99.9% of bacteria using wash water heated with a boost heater to 152° F (67° C). Cold water is used to cool and rinse the load.

￿NOTE

This setting has been certified by NSF International, an independent third party testing and certification organization dedicated to public health, safety and environmental protection.

Washers

Auto Temp Hot/Cold

Use this setting for heavily soiled white or colorfast cottons and blends.

Auto Temp Warm/Cold

Use this setting for normally soiled white or colorfast cottons or blends.

Auto Temp Warm/Warm (on select models) Use this setting for washable woolens or when a warm water rinse is desired.

Auto Temp Cold/Cold

Some warm water will automatically blend with cold tap supply to achieve a precise Auto Temp Cold. Use this setting for lightly soiled non-colorfast items, knits, delicates, and hand washables.

Cold/Cold

Wash and rinse temperatures are equivalent to temperature of cold tap supply. Use this temperature selection for fabrics and colors that are prone to dye transfer.

SPIN SPEED

Maximum, Fast, Medium and Slow spin speeds are available for each cycle. The spin speed and/or duration of final spin vary from model to model and cycle to cycle.

Increasing the spin speed will extract more water, decrease drying time and conserve energy. Decreasing the spin speed will reduce wrinkling.

Select Slow spin speed to gently spin items that should be line dried.

Use No Spin to omit the final spin at the end of the cycle. The load will be very wet. Remove items from the wash drum to drip dry or select the Spin Only cycle to remove excess water at a more convenient time.
