FAQ
Q: What is the difference between Heavy and Light settings?
A: For Whites and Colors, the wash agitation time is increased by 6 minutes and for Casuals, by 12 minutes. (Times are
approximate)
Q: What is the difference between Regular and Pulsed?
A: Regular means the washer will continuously agitate during the wash cycle. Pulsed provides a more gentle wash cycle
by including pause periods during the wash cycle.
Q: Which cycle is best for heavily soiled items?
A: Whites or Colors cycles have the greatest wash intensity. This cycle provides the best overall cleaning. Casuals should
be used for wrinkle-free and permanent press items.
Q: How can I reduce linting?
A: Sort wash loads by fabric type and whether they collect lint (velveteen, corduroy) or produce lint (terry cloth, chenille).
Wash small loads for a shorter amount of time.
Q: How much detergent do I use?
A: For best performance, always follow the detergent manufacturer’s instructions on usage. Many detergents are
concentrated, so consult the product label and follow the clearly marked lines on the detergent measuring cups.
Excessive detergent can negatively impact the wash performance.
Q: How does the selection of Power Rinse or Fabric Softener affect water usage of my washer?
A: Selecting the Power Rinse or Fabric Softener feature will increase the amount of water used by your washer during the
rinse cycle. The added water assists in the proper dilution of fabric softener. The quantity of water used in this cycle is
comparable to the amount used in the initial fill.
Q: Why do hot and warm water temperature settings not seem as hot as my previous washer?
A: Your new washer is designed to meet current federal energy and water efficiency requirements. Although temperature
settings and water levels may seem different than your previous washer, it will not affect wash performance.
