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. 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
plus 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.

AUTO LOAD SENSING- This selection automatically provides the correct amount of water suited to the size and type of load
