Modifiers - Whirlpool duet HT GHW9250ML1 Use And Care Manual

Auto Soak
Use the Auto Soak option for loads of heavily soiled cotton, linen,
polyester or nylon with set-in stains. During Auto Soak, water will
be added to the drum and the laundry will be equally distributed
by a short tumbling phase. Laundry will then be soaked by
phases without drum movement. After soaking, the washer
drains without spinning.
Add detergent to both the Prewash and Main Wash
compartments of the Dispenser Drawer.
Use powdered detergent for the main wash cycle because
liquid detergent will seep into the washer during Auto Soak.
For cycles with Hot Wash Temperatures, the Soak
temperature is set to WARM. Otherwise the Soak
temperature is the same as the Wash Temperature.
The Auto Soak and Prewash options cannot be selected in
the same cycle.
Extra Rinse
An extra rinse can be used to ensure the removal of detergent or
bleach residue from garments. This option provides an additional
rinse with the same water temperature as the first rinse.

Modifiers

Preset cycle settings of Water Temperature, Spin Speed, and
Soil Level can be changed. You can change a modifier after
starting a cycle anytime before the selected modifier begins.
Not all modifiers are available with all cycles and options.
To change the water temperature, select the WATER TEMP
button until the desired setting glows.
To change the spin speed, select the SPIN SPEED button
until the desired setting glows.
To change the loudness of the End of Cycle Signal, select
END OF CYCLE SIGNAL.
To change cycle time, select SOIL LEVEL button.
Wash/Rinse 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.
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.
