Laundry Guide - Whirlpool WFW9700VW - Duet Steam -Front Load Washer Use And Care Manual

■ This washer has a Sanitize water temperature that is certified
by NSF International, an independent third-party testing and
certification organization. The certification verifies that the
sanitizing cycle reduces 99.9% of bacteria typically found
on clothing, bedding, and towels, and there is no carryover
of bacteria between loads after the cycle is complete.
Certified to Sanitize
■ The 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.
■
The Sanitize Water Temp 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
