Your new energy-efficient ASKO washer is designed to
give you maximum cleaning performance using less
water, energy and detergent. To make the most of the
washer's functions and features, we recommend that
you read this manual carefully before using your machine
for the first time. For operating instructions, refer to
pages 10 through 20.
Below is an illustration of the external parts and features
of your ASKO washer.

SENSOR LEVEL CONTROL
ASKO washers do not need high, medium, or low water
level settings to compensate for different sized loads.
ASKO units have a consumption sensor—Sensor Level
Control—that ensures the correct amount of water is
pumped into the machine for any size load. It even
compensates for fabric saturation, letting in more water
if needed. This eliminates worry about selecting the right
water level setting for each laundry load.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL

Because wash water temperature is a major factor in
getting laundry clean, ASKO washers have built-in heating
elements and a sensor that keeps the temperature to
within +/-1° F of the selected program temperature.
ASKO washers are programmed not to advance in a
cycle until the selected water temperature is reached,
so the length of the cycles may vary, depending upon
the household cold water temperature, the amount of
laundry in the washer, and the wash temperature setting.

ENZYME STEP
To successfully remove all dirt and stains from fabric,
the enzymes in your detergent need to work at a
temperature between 105° and 140° F for a longer time
period. This longer wash cycle gives the enzymes in the
detergent ample time to remove stains, eliminating the
need for stain sprays and spot removers.
MORE RINSE CYCLES
Most washers have only two or three rinse cycles; some
have an option to add a fourth. ASKO washers have
five rinses and a Super Rinse option that adds two more.
ASKO washers get the soil and detergent out of your
laundry that most other washers leave in. That's why
your whites will remain white and your colored fabrics
will remain bright.
SUPER RINSE OPTION
This option is designed for people with sensitive skin or
who are allergic to detergents. It can also be used for
large, heavily soiled loads.
SPIN OPTIONS
ASKO washers have faster spin speeds than most other
washers, which may decrease the time it takes to dry
your laundry. The spin speeds range from 400 rpm to
1600 rpm, depending on the model. You can also turn
the spin cycle off.
