IMPORTANT: The washer features an automatic temperature control to provide a warm wash of approximately 105˚ F and cold wash of approximately 65˚ F.

While the washer is filling, you may notice just hot and/or just cold water going through the dispenser when cold or warm wash temperatures are selected. This is a normal function of the automatic temperature control feature as the washer determines the temperature of the water.

NOTE: In wash water temperatures below 60˚ F, detergents do not dissolve well or clean well. Care labels define cold water as up to 85˚ F.
