Washing/Rinsing Temperature
The appropriate washing temperature will auto- matically be indicated for the cycle selected.
For best results
Follow the fabric care label instructions on items to be washed.
To change the temperature, press the temperature button to scroll to the desired setting. Select
a wash water temperature according to fiber content, colorfastness and soil level. A cold water rinse saves energy and reduces wrinkling.
To protect your fabrics, not all temperatures are available with every cycle. Settings will not be dis- played if they are not available with that cycle. See the “Washer Settings Chart” in this guide for more information.
The temperature selected for the cycle will be remembered and recalled each time that cycle is selected in the future.
NOTE
To change the temperature once the cycle has begun, press the pause button, make the new selection and press start again.
All wash water temperatures are automatically regulated to maximize detergent effectiveness and improve washing performance. The washer will operate with tap water temperatures if desired. However, the water heater setting and its distance from the washer, water usage in other parts of the home, and seasonally low ground water temperature in some geographic areas can affect water temperature and impact the performance of your washer.
