WASH TEMPERATURE
Hot Water
Hot water will give the best results of cleaning and
sanitizing. But it is not suitable for all articles. It is
best for sturdy whites and colourfast articles, heavily
soiled articles and diapers.
Warm Water
By using warm water, there is less chance of colour
loss in articles. Use with light and moderate soils,
non-colourfast or dark colours, permanent press,
silks, woolens, nylons and acrylic.
Cold Water
Cold water is less effective in cleaning than hot or
warm water, but it does minimize wrinkling and
colour fading. Use it for washing extra sensitive
clothes and for the rinsing of all fabrics.
Energy
You can save energy when washing by following a
few guidelines:
1. Heating water accounts for the greatest
expense when washing. Save on heating water
by using cold rinses.
2. Wash full loads, but do not overload.
3. Select a shorter wash time for lightly soiled
articles.

desired function.

IMPORTANT:
Before using your new washer, make sure the
washer cord is plugged into a properly grounded
and polarized outlet which has the appropriate volt-
age (refer to the serial plate). Make sure the washer
hoses are connected to the hot and cold water
faucets, and that the faucets are turned on. Be sure
the drain hose is not kinked and is inserted into a
drain. See the INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS for
details of proper washer installation.
Before using the washer for the first time, wipe out
the inside of the washtub with a sudsy cloth.

section “GENERAL WASHING INFORMATION”
for proper detergent usage.

the washer will provide a cold rinse in all
temperature settings. If your washer is installed
under a portable application, connected to a
single water supply, the wash and rinse
temperatures will be the same. Also refer to
the “special note” under portable (single
