Sanitize with Oxi
(on some models)
The Sanitize with Oxi cycle, when using an Oxi additive along with your detergent, is
designed to remove 99.9% of bacteria found in home laundry.
Measure the detergent and the Oxi products carefully. Using the amounts appropriate for a large
heavily soiled load, follow the detergent and the Oxi product label instructions. The detergent
should be added using the dispenser instructions as shown on page 9 of this guide. Place the Oxi
product directly in the bottom of the wash basket, before adding the clothes. The washer hot water
supply connection must provide a minimum of 120°F to ensure the effectiveness of this cycle.
NOTE: The default Sanitize With Oxi cycle water temperature can NOT be changed.
The Sanitize With Oxi cycle is certified by NSF International, an independent third
party testing and certification organization. The certification verified that the cycle
reduced 99.9% of bacteria typically found in residential laundry and that no significant
contamination is transferred to subsequent washer loads. Only the Sanitize With Oxi
cycle has been designed to meet the requirements of NSF Protocol P172 for sanitizing
effectiveness.
