Auto Temp Control

ATC (Auto Temp Control) electronically senses and maintains a uniform water temperature. ATC regulates incoming hot and cold water. The ATC is automatically turned ON when a cycle is selected. See Preset Cycle Settings table in "Cycles."

ATC works for the wash temperature with Warm/Warm, Warm/Cold, and Cold/Cold settings.

ATC works for the rinse temperature with the Warm/Warm setting.

The Cold rinse temperatures depend on the cold water at your faucet.

In wash water temperatures colder than 60°F (15.6°C), detergents de not dissolve well. Soils may be difficult to remove.

Refer to this chart for suggested load types and their corresponding cycles. Listed to the right are the options available to each of these washer cycles.
