Using the Controls – Three-Speed Models
Select Water Level
Determine the selected setting based on clothes load
size. Selection should provide sufficient water to permit
clothes to circulate freely during agitation.
It may become necessary, due to bulky fabrics, to
adjust the water level after agitation begins. To adjust
the water level, turn the control to reset and then back
to the desired setting.
Select Wash/Rinse Temperature
Your washer gives you a choice of hot, warm or cold
water for washing and cold or warm water for rinsing.
When the Automatic Temperature Control knob is
set to “On,” the washer provides the optimal wash
water temperature for cleaning. To save energy, this
washer will regulate wash water temperatures by
mixing hot and cold water to reach the proper water
temperature.
