BENEFITS AND FEATURES

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

Benefits

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.

IntelliFill™ Water Level Control

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.

Auto Temp Control

The Auto Temp Control system on this washer electronically senses and maintains a uniform water temperature by regulating incoming water temperatures. Using Auto Temp Control will help dissolve detergent.

Washer Impeller System

Your new washer works differently than most washers that you are accustomed to. The most striking difference is that the washer has a washer impeller system. It uses this new innovative washer impeller 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 products are 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.
