gentle care of knits and delicate items.
SoaldPrewash Cycle
Soak

remove protein-based stains such as milk, grass and
blood. Prewash provides 3 minutes of agitation before
the water drains. Use the amount of detergent
recommended for a normal wash cycle.
• The Prewash water temperature isthe same as the wash
water temperature selected. To avoid setting protein

For best results, follow washing instructions on fabric
care labels.
Wash/Rinse Temperature
Turn the Wash/Rinse Temperature knob to select the wash
water temperature suitable for the fiber content and soil
level of each load. A cold water rinse saves energy and
reduces wrinkling.
Ifa cold rinse isselected, the washer will fill with cold water
during rinse, followed by acold spray rinse during final spin.
Ifawarm rinse isselected, the washer will fill with cold water
during rinse, followed by a warm spray rinse during final
spin.
To conserve energy, the hot wash water is regulated to
approximately 100°F. Warm and cold wash and rinse water
temperatures are not regulated and will depend upon the
incoming water temperature.
The following chart suggests wash/rinse temperatures for
basic fabric types.

for the load size. For best results, DO NOT overload. Add
items loosely to the tub. The dry load should not be higher
than the top of the agitator vanes. There should be enough
water in the tub for items to move freely.
To increase the water level after the wash cycle begins, turn
the Load Sizeknob to Resetand hold. When water begins to
enter the tub, turn the knob to the desired setting.
Energy Saving Tips
Wash full loads. Oversize loads use extra energy. Undersize
loads waste energy.
When smallwash loads cannot beavoided, use lower water
levels.
Select the appropriate cycleand time for eachload. Shorten
wash times for lightly soiled loads.
To reduce drying time, select a fast spin speed to remove
more water from heavy items such astowels and jeans.
Usewarm water to wash most loads. Limit hot water washes
to heavily soiled and white loads. Use cold water for lightly
soiled items and rinsing.
Operate the washer in early morning and late evening when
utility demands are low.
Follow proper laundry procedures to avoid rewashing.
