FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Electronic Controls

Flexible electronic controls are easy to use whether, you are a beginner or an expert.

Smart Dispensers

The Smart Dispensers make your washer truly automatic. This washer provides a three- compartment dispenser which includes separate compartments for main wash detergent, fabric softener, and chlorine bleach. The dispenser has large pour zones. The dispenser is self-cleaning, and can be easily removed. Laundry products are diluted with fresh water and added to the load at the proper time in the wash cycle.

Clean Washer with AFFRESH™ Cycle

This cycle uses steam to raise the temperature of the unit and makes the washer self-cleaning, flushing the machine’s interior free of dirt and other residue. The use of AFFRESH™ washer cleaner or liquid chlorine bleach with this cycle will remove and help avoid odor-causing residue.

Auto Water Level

This washer automatically adjusts water level for optimal cleaning and rinsing performance. Two sensors determine load size, load composition, and suds level, then the sensors adjust the water level to the proper setting. This eliminates guesswork. The water level is just right for every wash load size.

Super Size Capacity

Since there is no agitator, you can wash larger, bulkier items such as a king-sized bedspread. You are also able to wash more clothes at one time, which means fewer loads.

Smooth Balance™ Balance System

To reduce washer “walk” and “off-balance” conditions, your new washer combines:

„2 Springs to isolate vibration

„4 Shock absorbers at the washer base to minimize movement

Commercial Quality Stainless Steel Drum

The commercial quality stainless steel drum eliminates corrosion and enables higher spin speeds for more water extraction, reducing drying time compared to traditional front-load washers.

High-Efficiency Wash System

Your new front-loading, high-efficiency washer saves time with fewer, larger loads, and lowers your water and energy bills by helping conserve resources.

Spin Speeds

This washer automatically selects the spin speed based on the cycle selected. This factory setting can be changed, however. This washer offers up to five different spin speed choices.

Heating Element

This washer has a heating element that automatically heats the water to the optimal temperature on select cycles. This enables stepped cleaning, a process in which warm water is brought in and mixed with detergent first, then the water is heated. Stepped cleaning starts the wash cycle with warm water to help remove stains (such as blood and grass). This heater is active in the Whitest Whites, Heavy Duty, Normal/Casual, and Power Wash cycles.

Automatic Temperature Control

The automatic temperature control electronically senses and maintains a uniform water temperature. Automatic temperature control regulates incoming hot and cold water. Automatic temperature control is automatically turned on when a cycle is selected.

Add Clothes

Clothes can be added to the load during the first 8 minutes of the cycle. During this time, the Status Indicator will indicate it is okay to add clothes.

Special Cleaning Action with Sensi-Care™ Wash System

This washer channels 100% of the water through the dispensers to assure thorough rinse-out and mixture of all the laundry products before they touch any garments. The water is then sprayed from the top front onto the center of the load, providing even distribution, and optimum cleaning performance. It is normal for small amounts of water to remain in the dispensers when the wash cycle is complete.
