BENEFITS AND FEATURES
Your washer has several benefits and features that are summarized here. Some items may not apply to your model.
Benefits | Features |
gentlewash™ 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.
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.”
Quiet Operation
This washer is insulated with
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™ 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 additives are added to the load at the proper time in the wash cycle.
Suspension System
To reduce washer “walk” and “out of balance” conditions, your new washer combines:
■4 Spring damper struts to isolate vibration
■Balance ring at the top and bottom of the wash basket to minimize vibration
■Operating software designed to sense and correct
Clean Washer Cycle
This washer features an
Stainless Steel Basket
The stainless steel basket is corrosion resistant and enables higher spin speeds for more water extraction, reducing drying time.
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 rate of 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.
Force Filter Wash/Rinse System
This washer filters 100% of the wash and rinse water. The water is filtered then recirculated. The force filter traps sand and dirt, flushing them down the drain, so they are not redeposited onto the clean clothes.
Save Energy Plus Option
The Save Energy Plus option allows you to increase your energy savings on the higher temperature cycles (Whitest Whites and Heavy Duty) while maintaining cleaning performance by lengthening the wash time by only approximately 5 minutes.
Delay Start
Delay Start allows you to load your washer and pause the start of the cycle for up to 13 hours.
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.
End of Cycle Signal
The End of Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the wash cycle is finished. This signal is helpful when you are removing items from the washer as soon as it stops.
