Auto Temp Control
АТС (Auto Temp Control) electronically senses and maintains a
uniform water temperature. АТС regulates incoming hot and cold
water. The АТС is automatically turned ON when a cycle is
selected. (See “Preset Cycle Settings” in “Cycles.”)
■ АТС ensures consistent cleaning.
■ АТС works for the wash temperature with Extra Hot/Coid,
Hot/Cold, Warm/Warm, Warm/Cold, and Cold/Cold settings.
The Cold rinse temperatures depend on the cold water
at your faucet.
For the Tap Cold/Cold setting, both wash and rinse
temperatures depend on the cold water at your faucet.
АТС works for the rinse temperature with the Warm/Warm
setting. The cold rinse temperature depends on the cold
water at your faucet.

LAUNDRY TIPS
Preparing clothes for washing
Follow these recommendations to help you prolong the life of
your garments.
■ Close zippers, snaps, and hooks to avoid snagging other
items. Remove pins, buckles, and other hard objects to avoid
scratching the washer interior. Remove non-washable trim
and ornaments.
■ Empty pockets and turn them inside-out.
■ Turn down cuffs; brush away lint and dirt.
■ Turn synthetic knits inside-out to avoid pilling.
■ Tie strings and sashes so they will not tangle.
■ Mend tears, loose hems, and seams.
■ Treat spots and stains.
■ Stained or wet garments should be washed promptly for best
results.
Sorting
■ Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled ones, even if
they would normally be washed together. Separate lint-givers
(towels, chenille) from lint-takers (corduroy, synthetics,
permanent press). When possible, turn lint-givers inside-out.
■ Separate dark colors from light colors, colorfast items from
noncolorfast items.
■ Sort by fabric and construction (sturdy cottons, knits, delicate
items).
