Features And Benefits - Whirlpool W10133484A Use And Care Manual

Your new front-loading high efficiency washer, was designed to
conserve resources and lower your water and energy bills. The
washer is designed to determine and then provide the amount of
water needed for the best performance. The time of operation
may be greater for this new system than for a conventional
washer.
Electronic Controls
Flexible electronic controls are easy to use whether you are a
beginner or an expert.
Auto Water Level
Adjusting to the size of the load, this feature allows the washer to
use the minimal amount of water needed to clean and rinse the
clothes. With a low water level, you can obtain the same results
with smaller amounts of additives. Because only the required
amount of water is used, the washer saves energy, too. You can
obtain the same washing results for small and large load sizes.
Larger Load Size
Since there is no agitator, you can wash larger, bulkier items such
as an average size sleeping bag. You are also able to wash more
clothes at one time, which means fewer loads. You can wash a
pillow or a large stuffed teddy bear.
Suspension 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
Stainless Steel Drum
The stainless steel drum eliminates corrosion and enables higher
spin speeds for more water extraction, reducing drying time.
Adaptive Variable Speed Motor
The motor adapts to the load size and to the cycle selected to
give the optimum cleaning, rinsing, and spinning conditions. The
motor can handle slow speeds needed for delicate items and is
powerful enough to drive an average clothes load up to high-
speed spin.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Spin Speeds
This washer automatically selects the spin speed based on the
cycle selected. For some cycles, the default spin speed can be
changed if desired. This washer offers up to three different spin
speed choices.
Heating Element
This washer has a heating element that automatically heats the
water to the best 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. The
warm water cleans stains such as blood and eggs, and the
heated water removes oily stains such as perspiration and dirty
mechanical oil. This heater is active in the Sanitary, Whitest
Whites and Heavy Duty cycles.
Add A Garment
This option is available in all wash cycles except Rinse/Spin,
Drain/Spin, and Clean Washer. When this option is available at
the beginning of the cycle the Add A Garment status light will
illuminate for the first 7 minutes. This washer allows a 7-minute
period in which forgotten garments may be added to a load.
Dynamic Balance
A precision balancing system allows the washer to reach high-
speed spins. The washer spins faster so that clothes coming out
of the washer will have less moisture than with traditional top
load machines. In addition, if the Dynamic Balance system
detects off-balance loads during spinning, it redistributes the
clothes so that they are evenly balanced.
Smart Dispensers
The three compartments in the dispenser allow loading of all
laundry additives before the washer is started. The additives will
be dispensed into the wash at the optimal time for high-
performance cleaning. The bleach release system is included in
the detergent advantage system. The detergent is added at the
beginning of the cycle, and the bleach is added after the
enzymes have had a chance to do their cleaning. The fabric
softener is dispensed in the rinse cycle or in the EXTRA RINSE, if
selected. The Detergent Advantage System Dispenser tray is
easily removed for cleaning.
Use only HE High Efficiency detergent.
