Temperature
Select the water temperature for the wash and rinse cycles. Always follow fabric manufacturer's care label or instructions
when laundering.
PerfecTemp senses the incoming water temperature and adjusts the fill water to obtain a more precise temperature range for
all wash temperatures except TAP COLD. For example, in a COLD wash selection, some warm water may be added to reach a
temperature needed to better dissolve detergents. Often, detergents are not completely dissolved in very cold water, especially
in cooler climates. During winter months, when the water entering your home is colder, or for locations with very cold water
year round, use the PerfecTemp COLD to help dissolve powdered detergents and to improve the cleaning of your clothes.
The TAP COLD feature turns the PerfecTemp feature on your washer off and uses your household tap water temperature
for a COLD wash. This can provide energy savings by reducing the amount of hot water used in your wash.
Options
Autosoak Option (on some models)
This option begins with a brief agitation, soaks for a specified period of time, then moves through the rest of the cycle
automatically. On some models, this option is located on the Cycle Selector knob.
2nd Rinse Option (on some models)
When you use extra detergent or bleach to clean heavily soiled clothes, use the 2nd Rinse option to better remove additional
residues.
Extended Spin Option (on some models)
Use this option to extract more water from your clothes. Clothes will be drier when this option is selected and will dry more
quickly in your dryer.
Fabric Softener and Power Rinse
Set this option when adding fabric softener to the washer or to select the enhanced Power Rinse.
NOTE: Do not use fabric softener dispensing balls with this washer. They do not work correctly in high efficiency washers.
