Water Level
This washer automatically selects Auto for the water level when
the cycle is selected. The Auto feature senses the size of the load
and adds the correct amount of water for the load size. You can
also manually change the water level settings.
Wash/Rinse Temp
Select a water temperature based on the type of load you are
washing. Use the warmest wash water safe for fabrics. Follow
garment label instructions.
Warm rinses leave the loads drier and more comfortable to
handle. However, warm rinses may increase wrinkling. Cold
rinses may help with wrinkling and save energy.

Auto Temp Control
Auto Temp Control (ATC) electronically senses and maintains a
uniform wash and rinse water temperature. ATC regulates
incoming hot and cold water. The ATC is automatically turned On
when a cycle is selected. (See "Preset Cycle Settings" in
"Cycles.")
ATC is available with Warm/Warm, Warm/Cold and Cool/Cold
settings. The water temperature in the Hot/Cold and Cold/Cold
settings depend on the water temperature at the water inlet
faucets.
ATC ensures consistent cleaning.
Heated water consumes the largest amount of energy that a
washer uses.
Today's detergents work well at temperatures above 60°F
(15.6°C).
