WATER LEVEL CONTROL
This control gives you the flexibility to
save water when washing small loads,
Your washer lets you select a water
setting based on the size of your wash
load.
• For normal loads, start with the
MEDIUM LOAD setting. Adjust up or
down depending on your load. Clothes
should move freely and roll toward the
agitator.

WATER TEMPERATURE CONTROL
Your washer lets you select a wash and
rinse water temperature setting based
on the type of load you are washing.
• Using warm rinse water will leave loads
dryer after the spin cycle than if you
use cold rinse water. However, warm
rinses may increase wrinkling when
line drying.
• In cold climates, warm rinse water also
provides a more comfortable tempera-
ture for handling the wash load. Warm
rinse is controlled to 75°F (24°C).

Temperature Suggested Fabrics Comments
HOT • Work clothes • Best cleaning for heavily soiled items
111°F (44°C) ° Sturdy whites/ • Removes oils, perspiration, greasy soils
or above colorfast pastels and stains
• Diapers • Prevents graying or yellowing
WARM ° Dark/non-colorfast colors • Best for moderately soiled to lightly soiled items
90°-110°F ° Permanent press items • Safe for most fabric finishes
(32°-43°C) • Nylon, polyester, acrylics, • Less fading and dye bleeding

*In wash water temperatures colder than 70°F (21°C), detergents do not dissolve well. Also,
soils may be difficult to remove and some fabrics may retain wear wrinkles and have
increased pilling - the formation of small lint-like balls on the surface of garments. Pilling is
the natural result of wearing and washing of garments.
