BENEFITS AND FEATURES

Your washer has several benefits and features that are summarized here. Some items may not apply to your model.

NSF Certified

The Heavy Duty cycle is NSF certified to eliminate 99.9% of bacteria when used in conjunction with the Timed Oxi option.

Gentlewash TM High-Efficiency Wash System

Your new top loading, high-efficiency washer saves you time by allowing you to do fewer, larger loads. It also conserves resources and also lowers your water and energy bills by using the following innovations.

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.

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.

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 TM 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, fabric softener or laundry boosters.

Laundry products are automatically added to the load at the proper time in the wash cycle.

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 speed.

Stain Treat (CATALYST _ Cleaning Action)

The Stain Treat option helps to ensure better soil and stain removal. Stain Treat uses the heater within the washer to

maintain the selected temperature setting throughout the wash period. This option will add some additional time to the cycle based on which temperature is selected. Stain Treat reduces the need for pretreatment and is safe for all fabrics.

Timed Oxi

This washer is designed to dispense laundry boosters such as oxygenated stain treaters and color-safe bleach at the right time in the cycle for best cleaning performance.

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 sound-dampening materials to reduce washer operation sounds and noises. On some models, an additional tub wrap is added for superior vibration- and sound-dampening.

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 off- balance loads

Clean Washer Cycle

This washer features an easy-to-use Clean Washer cycle that thoroughly cleans the inside of your washing machine using

higher water volumes in combination with liquid chlorine bleach.
