washer has been paused. To resume operation press the
START button (the lid must be closed).
D Temperature
Select the water temperature for the wash and rinse cycles.
Always follow fabric manufacturer's care label or instructions
when laundering.
Automatic Temperature Control senses the incoming water
temperature and adjusts the fill water to obtain a more pre-
cise temperature range for all wash temperatures. For ex-
ample, in a COLD wash selection, some warm water may be
added to reach a temperature needed to better dissolve de-
tergents. Often, detergents are not completely dissolved in
very cold water, especially in cooler climates.
During winter months, when the water entering your home is
colder, or for locations with very cold water year round, use
the Automatic Temperature Control COLD to help dissolve
powdered detergents and to improve the cleaning of your
clothes.
The TAP COLD feature turns the Automatic Temperature
Control feature on your washer off, and uses your household
tap water temperature for a COLD wash. This can provide
energy savings by reducing the amount of hot water used in
your wash.
E Load Size
Loosely load clothes no higher than the top row of holes in
the washer basket.
AUTO LOAD SENSING- This selection automatically pro-
vides the correct amount of water suited to the size and type
of load placed in the unit.
