water safe for fabric. Follow garment label instructions.
Water Temp Use for
Hot Whites and pastels
Heavy soils
Warm Bright colors
Moderate to light soils
Cold Colors that bleed or fade
Light soils
NOTE: In wash water temperatures colder than 60°F (15.6°C),
detergents do not dissolve well. Soils can be difficult to
remove. Some fabrics can retain wear wrinkles and have
increased pilling (the formation of small lint-like balls on the
surface of garments).
(OPTIONAL) An Automatic Temperature Control (ATC)
electronically senses and maintains a uniform water
temperature by regulating incoming hot and cold water.
• Even in cold wash, some warm water is let into the
washer to maintain a minimum temperature of
approximately 60°F (15.6°C).
(OPTIONS) You can customize your wash by adding rinse
Options to your cycle selections. A cycle will "start" where
you set the Cycle Selector Control (Timer) knob. See
"Selecting a Cycle and Time." The cycle will "stop" where you
set the Options Control knob. This knob has settings for:
• One Rinse. Use this option for one rinse after a basic
wash cycle, Rinse & Spin, and Drain & Spin.
• 2nd Rinse. A 2nd Rinse can be added to the Ultra Clean
cycle and to the Permanent Press II cycle.
• Soak Only. Use this option for set-in stains and soil that
need extra time for removal.
• Soak & Prewash. Select the prewash option to ensure
thorough cleaning of your heavily soiled and stained
loads.
NOTE: The Prewash cycle and Soak & Prewash Only option
should be followed by a main wash cycle with additional
detergent added. The Soak Only option should be followed
by a main wash cycle without additional detergent.
