Selecting wash-rinse temperatures
Match the water temperature to the type of
fabric and soils being washed. The top tem­
perature is the wash water and the bottom
temperature is the rinse water.
Water temperature tips
• Use warm wash water with the Permanent
Press and Délicates cycles.
• Always use cold rinse water for permanent
press fabrics.
• For heavily soiled permanent press or knit
clothes, prewash or presoak before washing
in warm water.
See the “Water usage guide" on page 16 for
more information.
