Features And Benefits - Maytag Epic MFW9800TQ Use And Care Manual

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 four-
compartment dispenser which includes separate compartments for main wash detergent,
fabric softener, bleach, and auto oxi prewash or auto soak. 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.
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
Commerical 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.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

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 Sanitary, Whitest Whites and Heavy Duty 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 A Garment
When this option is available at the beginning of the cycle the Add A Garment status light will
glow for the first 8 minutes. This washer allows an 8-minute period in which other garments
may be added to a load.
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.
Efficient Detergent System
This washer has a specially designed valve that closes during the wash portion of the cycle so
that 100% of the water and detergent mixture is used on the load. The Efficient Detergent
System ensures that no water or detergent is wasted.
Dynamic Off-Balance Detection
This washer uses two sensors to detect load size and the amount of off-balance within the
load. The suspension system and controls are specially designed to redistribute the load
automatically.
