Select a wash temperature based on the type of fabric
and soils being washed. For best results and following
the garment label instructions, use the warmest wash
water safe for your fabric.
NOTES:
• The temperature of hot and cold water depends upon
the temperature of the water entering your washer.
• Warm and cool water will be cooler than what your
previous washer provided.
• Even in a cold and cool water wash, some warm water may
be added to the washer to maintain a minimum
temperature.
