Clothes care safeguards
To avoid accidentally damaging your clothes there are a few options that your washer will not accept. For example, you cannot select a HOT wash on the HAND WASH or EASY IRON cycles (WashSmart™ model) and DELICATE or WOOL cycles (QuickSmart™ model), nor can you select the ECO option on anything other than the HEAVY DUTY or REGULAR cycles (both models).
