Laundry Guide - Kenmore 110.4778* Use & Care Manual

Wash Temp
Select a water temperature based on the type of load you are
washing. Use the warmest wash water safe for fabrics. Follow
garment label instructions.
The Steam Sanitize temperature provides an extra high
temperature to remove 99.9% of certain bacteria. It is
recommended that you set your hot water heater to 120ºF
(49ºC) to ensure proper performance during this cycle.
NSF Certified
The Steam Sanitize temperature uses high water
temperatures. Please check garment care label to avoid
garment damage.

In wash water temperatures colder than 60°F (15.6°C),
detergents do not dissolve well. Soils may be difficult to
remove.
Warm rinses leave the loads dryer than cold rinses. Warm rinses
increase wrinkling. In cold climates, a warm rinse makes the load
more comfortable to handle. Cold rinses save energy.
Auto Temp Control
ATC (Auto Temp Control) electronically senses and maintains a
uniform water temperature. ATC regulates incoming hot and cold
water. The ATC is automatically turned on when a cycle is
selected. (See "Preset Cycle Settings" in "Cycles.")
ATC works for the wash temperature with Steam Sanitize,
Hot, Warm, and Cool settings.
The Cold wash temperature depends on the cold water at
your faucet.
ATC works for the rinse temperature where the wash temp
setting is marked with an asterisk, such as Warm*. All other
rinse temperatures are cold.
