DEEP CLEAN SANITIZE
Use the deep clean sanitize cycle to clean and
sanitize heavily soiled, colorfast fabrics including
towels, bedding, and children’s clothing. Very hot
water, all spin speeds, all soil levels except light
and extra light, and all options except prewash,
eco friendly and stain clean are available with
this cycle.
It is recommended that you set your water heater
to 120° F (49° C) or higher to ensure proper per-
formance during this cycle. If the setting is lower
or the load is extra large, the cycle time will be
extended by 30 minutes or more.
The deep clean sanitize cycle will kill 99.9% of
bacteria with no carryover of bacteria between
loads. No bleach or harsh chemicals are needed,
but higher temperatures are required. Please
check fabric care labels to prevent damage.

NOTE
This cycle has been certifi ed by NSF International,
an independent third party testing and certifi cation
organization dedicated to public health, safety and
environmental protection.
NOTE
If the voltage at your outlet is under 110 v, the
internal heater may not adequately heat the wash
water. If the cycle is interrupted while the water is
heating, the fi nal temperature of the wash water
may be lower and sanitation may be reduced.
As a precaution, the washer door is locked once
the water temperature reaches 130° F (55° C). If
the cycle is cancelled during the wash phase and
the water temperature is greater than 150° F (66°
C), an automatic cool down and drain will occur
before the door can be opened.
The wash water is heated by an internal boost
heater to a maximum of 152° F (67° C) as the load
tumbles for up to 4 hours. Cold water is added to
cool down the load prior to drain and spin.
