MODIFIERS
Modifiers allow you to further customize the
cycles and save energy.
SOIL LEVEL
Soil level (wash time) is preset for each wash
cycle. See "Preset Cycle Settings" in "Cycles."
As you press the Soil Level pad, the cycle time
(minutes) will increase or decrease in the Esti-
mated Time Remaining display and a different
wash time will appear. To get the minimum wash
time, press the pad until the indicator light next
to Light Soil Level illuminates. This is the short-
est wash time available for that cycle.
For most loads, use the time recommended
in the preset cycle settings.
For heavy soil and sturdy fabrics, press Soil
Level to select more wash time, if needed.
For light soil and delicate fabrics, press Soil
Level to select less wash time, if needed.
LOAD SIZE
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 than cold rinses. How-
ever, warm rinses also increase wrinkling.
Cold rinses may help with wrinkling and save
energy.
