BENEFITS AND
FEATURES
Your washer has several benefits and features that are summarized here. Some items may not apply to your model.
Gentlewash TM High-Efficiency Wash System
Your new top loading,
Auto Water Level
This washer senses the load size and composition through a series of fills and wash motion. It then adjusts the water level for the best cleaning and rinsing performance. It eliminates the guesswork. The water level is just right for every wash load size. NOTE: You may notice during a cycle that the wash load is not completely submerged in water. This is normal for your washer.
Auto Temperature Control (ATC)
The Auto Temperature Control (ATC) on this washer electronically senses and maintains a uniform water temperature by regulating incoming water temperatures. Using ATC will help dissolve detergent.
INVIZIBLE TM Agitator
Your new washer works differently than most washers that you are accustomed to. The most striking difference is that the washer has an invisible agitator. It uses this new innovative agitator at the bottom of the wash basket to move your load through a mixture of water and detergent. The load is moved from the outside toward the middle with items coming up in the center and down on the outside edges.
Dispensers
The dispensers make your washer truly automatic. It is unnecessary for you to return to the washer during the cycle to add detergent, bleach, or fabric softener.
Laundry products are automatically added to the load at the proper time in the wash cycle.
Spin Speeds
This washer is preset to automatically select the spin speed based on the cycle selected. Depending on your wash load, you can change the preset speeds. The spin speed on this washer is nearly twice as fast as that of a conventional washer. You may notice different sounds during a spin cycle because of this higher speed.
Stain Treat (CATALYST ® Cleaning Action)
The Stain Treat option helps to ensure better soil and stain removal. Stain Treat reduces the need for pretreatment and is safe for all fabrics. Water flushes through the dispenser to dissolve the detergent. The detergent mixture is then sprayed onto the load while the washer spins at low speed. This cleaning action will last up to 5 minutes depending on the cycle selected. The washer then stops spinning, fills with water to the appropriate level and continues washing with the selected cycle.
High Efficiency (HE) Detergent
This washer is designed for High Efficiency (HE) detergent use only. HE detergents are made to produce the right amount of suds and give the best performance in low water wash systems.
Innovative Features
Your new washer includes these features that help to reduce noise, increase the ease of use and improve wash performance.
Electronic Controls
Electronic controls with preset cycles are easy to use whether you are a beginner or an "expert."
