6. Turn the Load Size selector to the correct setting
for your wash load and
the type of fabric being

• Your washer has five
load size settings.

4. (OPTIONAL STEP) Pour measured liquid fabric
softener into the fabric
softener dispenser.
• Do not spill or drip
any fabric softener on
the clothes.
• Make sure you use
only liquid fabric
softener in this
dispenser.
7. Set the Water Temperature selector to the correct
setting for the type of
fabric and soils being
washed.
• Your washer uses the
Accuwash automatic
temperature control.
Accuwash maintains a
uniform water tempera-
ture by regulating
incoming hot and cold
water. This helps elimi-
nate undissolved detergent and ensures consis-
tent cleaning results. The cold wash is maintained
at approximately 75°F (24°C). The warm wash is
maintained at approximately 100°F (38°C).
NOTE: Make sure that both hot and cold water
faucets are turned on, or the Accuwash feature
will not work properly.
• Use the warmest water safe for fabric.
• Follow garment label instructions.
HOT: 130°F (54°C) or above.
– Whites and pastels.
– Heavy and greasy soils.
WARM: 90° to 110°F (32° to 44°C).
– Bright colors.
– Moderate to light soils.
COLD: 70° to 90°F (21° to 32°C).
– Colors that bleed or fade.
– Light soils.
8. (OPTIONAL STEP) Your washer has an Extra
Rinse selector. For an additional rinse and spin
at the end of a wash cycle, set the Extra Rinse
selector to On.
9. (OPTIONAL STEP) Set the Cycle Signal selector
to On if you want your washer to sound a signal
when the wash cycle is finished. This signal is
helpful when you are washing items that should
be removed from the washer as soon as the
cycle ends.
5. Close the washer lid.
• Dilute liquid fabric softener by filling the dis-
penser with warm
water until liquid
reaches the
crossbar in the
opening.
• Softener is added
automatically during
the rinse portion of
the cycle.
