Washercare - Whirlpool Gold GSX9885JQ0 Use & Care Manual

Rinse/Spin or Spin only
When using extra detergent for heavily soiled clothes, or washing
special-care items, you may find an extra rinse and spin is
needed. The Rinse/Spin option may also be used for items that
need rinsing only or for completing a cycle after a power failure.
An extra drain and spin may help shorten drying times for some
heavy fabrics or special-care items by removing excess water.
The Spin option may also be used for draining the washer after
canceling a cycle or completing a cycle after a power failure.

The timed bleach dispenser automatically dispenses liquid
chlorine bleach to the wash load at the appropriate time during
the cycle to help ensure the cleanest and brightest loads. Bleach
is dispensed into the wash load a few minutes after agitation
begins in order to give the detergent time to achieve the best soil
and stain removal.
NOTE: Do not use this dispenser to add powdered chlorine or
color-safe bleach to your wash load. The dispenser is for liquid
chlorine bleach only.

Your washer uses ACCUWASH temperature control system. The
ACCUWASH feature maintains a uniform water temperature by
regulating incoming hot and cold water. This helps eliminate
undissolved detergent and ensures consistent cleaning results.
The cold wash is regulated at approximately 75°F (24°(3). The
warm wash is maintained at approximately 100°F (88°(3).
When you select a cycle, the washer selects the recommended
ACCUWASH setting for the type of fabric and soils being
washed.
NOTES:
• Make sure that both hot and cold water faucets are turned on
or the ACCUWASH feature will not work properly.
• The wash and rinse water temperature for Hot/Cold are not
regulated with the ACCUWASH feature.
The ACCUWASH feature can be turned Off by pressing On/Off.
Your washer has a self-cleaning lint filter at the bottom of the
basket. Wash and rinse water flow over the filter during agitation,
separating the lint from the water. The lint spins out of the system
during the spin part of the cycle. If your washer drains into a tub,
remove any lint collected in the tub or strainer.
WASHERCARE
Cleaning the exterior
Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to wipe up any spills such as
detergent or bleach. Occasionally wipe the outside of your
washer to keep it looking new.
Cleaning the interior
Clean your washer interior by mixing 1 cup (250 mL) of chlorine
bleach and 2 cups (500 mL) of detergent. Pour this into your
washer and run it through a complete cycle using hot water.
Repeat this process if necessary.
NOTE: Remove any hard water deposits using only cleaners
labeled as washer safe.
Cleaning the dispensers
The dispensers are self-cleaning. If the liquid fabric softener
dispenser needs cleaning, scrub with a brush using a liquid
laundry detergent solution.
IMPORTANT:
• Remove hard water deposits using only cleaners labeled as
washer safe.
• Never use any cleaning fluids on dispenser parts. This can
cause damage to the plastic.
