The heavy duty and whitest whites with
sanitize setting cycles have been designed to
meet the requirements of NSF P172 protocol for
sanitization effi cacy.

Washers
The wash water is heated by an internal boost
heater to a maximum of 152° F (67° C) as the
load tumbles. Cold water is added to cool down
the load prior to drain and spin.
NOTE
If the voltage at your outlet is under 110 v, the
internal heater may not adequately heat the
wash water. If the cycle is interrupted while the
water is heating, the fi nal temperature of the
wash water may be lower and sanitation may
be reduced.
As a precaution, the washer door remains
locked when the water temperature reaches 130°
F (55° C).
hot
Use this setting for heavily soiled white or color-
fast cottons and blends.
warm
Use this setting for normally soiled white or
colorfast cottons or blends.
cold
Some warm water will automatically blend with
cold tap supply to achieve a precise cold. Use
this setting for lightly soiled non-colorfast items,
knits, delicates, and hand washables.
eco cold
Wash and rinse temperatures are equivalent to
temperature of cold tap supply. Use this selec-
tion for fabrics and colors that are prone to dye
transfer. For use with cold water
Operating Instructions
Soil Level
Adjust the wash time based on the soil level
of each load. Max (on select models), heavy,
normal, light and extra light soil levels are
available.
Spin Speed
Max (on select models), high, medium and low
spin speeds are available for each cycle. The
spin speed and/or duration of fi nal spin vary
from model to model and cycle to cycle.
Increasing the spin speed will extract more wa-
ter, decrease drying time and conserve energy.
Decreasing the spin speed will reduce wrinkling.
Select low spin speed to gently spin items that
should be line dried.
Use no spin to omit the fi nal spin at the end of
the cycle. The load will be very wet. Remove
items from the wash drum to drip dry or select
a spin only cycle to remove excess water at a
more convenient time.
