automatically incorporates steam into the wash
cycle.
• The ALLERGIENE™ cycle can significantly
reduce allergens in bedding and clothing.
• The ALLERGIENE™ cycle helps reduce dust
mite populations and helps reduce allergens.
• Due to the higher energy and temperatures
used, the ALLERGIENE™ cycle is not
recommended for wool, silk, leather, or any
other delicate or temperature sensitive items.
HAND WASH/WOOL
• Only woolen items that are designated as
Machine-Washable should be washed in this
washing machine
• Wash only small loads for optimum fabric care

fabric care
