Cycle Selection, continued

Express Wash

Quickly wash a small, lightly soiled load in 18 minutes.

Express Sanitize

Use the Express Sanitize cycle to clean and sanitize heavily soiled, colorfast fabrics including towels, bed- ding, cloth diapers, and children’s clothing.

It is recommended that you set your water heater to 120° F (49° C) or higher to ensure proper performance during this cycle. If the setting is lower or the load is extra large, the cycle time may be extended.

The Express Sanitize cycle will kill 99.9% of bacteria with no carryover of bacteria between loads. No bleach or harsh chemicals are needed, but higher temperatures are required. Please check fabric care labels to prevent damage.

NOTE

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

NSF Protocol P172

Sanitization Performance of Residential

and Commercial, Family-Sized Clothes

Washers

The wash water is heated by an internal boost heater to a maximum of 152° F (67° C) as the load tumbles. is displayed during the wash phase alternately with the estimated cycle time. Cold water is added to cool down the load prior to drain and spin.

NOTE

If the voltage at your outlet is under 110 v, the internal heater may not adequately heat the wash water. If the cycle is interrupted while the water is heating, the final temperature of the wash water may be lower and sanitation may be reduced.

As a precaution, the washer door is locked once the water temperature reaches 130° F (55° C). If the cycle is cancelled during the wash phase and the water temper- ature is greater than 150° F (66° C) an automatic cool down rinse will occur before the door can be opened.
