FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Electronic Controls

Flexible electronic controls are easy to use whether you are a beginner or an expert.

Smart Dispensers

The Smart Dispensers make your washer truly automatic. This washer provides a four-compartment dispenser which includes separate compartments for main wash detergent, fabric softener, bleach, and auto prewash or auto soak. The dispenser has large pour zones, is self-cleaning, and can be easily removed. Laundry additives are diluted with fresh water and added to the load at the proper time in the wash cycle.

Auto Water Level

This washer automatically adjusts water level for best cleaning and rinsing performance. Two sensors determine load size, load composition, and suds level, then the sensors adjust the water level to the proper setting. This eliminates guesswork. The water level is just right for every wash load size.

Larger Load Size

Since there is no agitator, you can wash larger, bulkier items such as a king-sized bedspread. You are also able to wash more clothes at one time, which means fewer loads.

Suspension System

To reduce washer “walk” and “off-balance” conditions, your new washer combines:

2 Springs to isolate vibration

4 Shock absorbers at the washer base to minimize movement

Heating Element

This washer has a heating element that automatically heats the water to the best temperature on select cycles. This enables stepped cleaning, a process in which warm water is brought in and mixed with detergent first, then the water is heated. The warm water cleans stains such as blood and eggs, and the heated water removes oily stains such as perspiration and dirty mechanical oil. This heater is active in the Sanitary, Whitest Whites and Heavy Duty cycles.

Automatic Temperature Control

The automatic temperature control electronically senses and maintains a uniform water temperature. Automatic temperature control regulates incoming hot and cold water. Automatic temperature control is automatically turned On when a cycle is selected.

Add A Garment

When this option is available at the beginning of the cycle the Add A Garment status light will glow for the first 8 minutes. This washer allows an 8-minute period in which forgotten garments may be added to a load.

Special Cleaning Action with Direct Injection

This washer channels 100% of the water through the dispensers to assure thorough rinse-out and mixture of all the additives before they touch any garments. The water is then sprayed from the top front onto the center of the load, providing even distribution and optimum cleaning performance. It is normal for small amounts of water to remain in the dispensers when the wash cycle is complete.

Stainless Steel Drum

The stainless steel drum eliminates corrosion and enables higher spin speeds for more water extraction, reducing drying time.

High-Efficiency Wash System

Your new front-loading, high-efficiency washer saves time with fewer, larger loads, and lowers your water and energy bills by helping conserve resources.

Spin Speeds

This washer automatically selects the spin speed based on the cycle selected. This factory setting can be changed, however. This washer offers up to five different spin speed choices.

Efficient Detergent System

This washer has a specially designed valve that closes during the wash portion of the cycle so that 100% of the water and detergent mixture is used on the load. The Efficient Detergent System ensures that no water or detergent is wasted.

Dynamic Off-Balance Detection

This washer uses two sensors to detect load size and the amount of off-balance within the load. The suspension system and controls are specially designed to redistribute the load automatically.
