NORMAL
Use this load for cotton, linen, towels, shirts,
sheets, denims and mixed loads.
COLORS
Use this cycle for lightly soiled, dark, or highly
dyed fabrics such as cotton which may be suscep-
tible to dye loss.
WHITES
Use this cycle for white fabrics and lightly colored
clothing. Refer to fabric care label for use of liquid
chlorine bleach.
HEAVY DUTY
Use this cycle for heavily soiled, durable garments
- ex. towels, sports gear, or fabric tote bags. For
best soil and stain removal, use the hottest water
safe for the fabrics being washed.
DEEP CLEAN SANITIZE
Use the deep clean sanitize cycle to clean and
sanitize heavily soiled, colorfast fabrics including
towels, bedding, and children's clothing.
Operating Instructions
It is recommended that you set your water heater
to 120° F (49° C) or higher to ensure proper per-
formance during this cycle. If the setting is lower
or the load is extra large, the cycle time will be
extended by 30 minutes or more.
The deep clean sanitize cycle will kill 99.9% of
bacteria with no carryover of bacteria between
loads. No bleach or harsh chemicals are needed,
but higher temperatures are required. Please
check fabric care labels to prevent damage.
NOTE
Only sanitizing cycles have been designed to
meet the requirements of NSF P172 protocol for
sanitization effi cacy.

and Commercial, Family-Sized Clothes
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 is locked once
the water temperature reaches 130° F (55° C). If
the cycle is cancelled during the wash phase and
the water temperature is greater than 150° F (66°
C), an automatic cool down and drain will occur
before the door can be opened.
