NOTE
The heavy duty, towels, optic whites
and whitest whites with sanitize setting
cycles have been designed to meet the
requirements of NSF P172 protocol for
sanitization efficacy.
NOTE
If the voltage at your outlet is under 110v,
the internal heater may not adequately
heat the wash water. If the cycle is
interrupted while the water is heating, the
final temperature of the wash water may
be lower and sanitation may be reduced.
NOTE
If the wash cycle is paused or canceled
while the internal drum temperature is
above 130°F (55°C), the door will remain
locked until it cools. You may manually
perform a rinse & spin cycle to cool the
internal temperature sooner.
NOTE
The heavy duty, optic whites and
towels cycles with the allergen option
selected have been designed to meet the
requirements of the NSF P351 protocol
for allergen reduction efficacy. These
cycles and settings will kill dust mites
and eliminate at least 95% of pet dander.
Since higher temperatures are required,
please check fabric care labels to prevent
damage.
The temperature selected for the cycle will
be remembered and recalled each time that
cycle is selected in the future.
All wash water temperatures are automatically
regulated to maximize detergent effectiveness
and improve washing performance. The
water heater setting and its distance from
the washer, water usage in other parts of
the home, and seasonally low ground water
temperature in some geographic areas can
affect water temperature.
sanitize (on select models)
Use the sanitize setting to clean and sanitize
heavily soiled, colorfast fabrics including towels,
bedding, cloth diapers, and children’s clothing.
It is recommended that you set your water
heater to 120°F (49°C) or higher to ensure
proper performance during this cycle. If the
setting is lower or the load is extra large, the
cycle time may be extended.
When used with the heavy duty, towels,
optic whites and whitest whites, cycles, the
sanitize setting will kill 99.9% of bacteria with
no carryover of bacteria between loads. No
bleach or harsh chemicals are needed, but
higher temperatures are required. Please
check fabric care labels to prevent damage.
CONTROLS AND SETTINGS
hot
Use this setting for heavily soiled white or
colorfast cottons and blends.
warm
Use this setting for normally soiled white or
colorfast cottons or blends.
cool
Some warm water will automatically blend
with cold tap supply to achieve a precise
cold. Use this setting for lightly soiled non-
colorfast items, knits, delicates, and hand
washables.
eco cold (on select models)
Wash and rinse temperatures are equivalent
to temperature of cold tap supply. Use this
selection for fabrics and colors that are
prone to dye transfer. For use with cold
water
detergents.
The wash water is heated by an internal boost
heater to a maximum of 152°F (67°C) as the
load tumbles. Cold water is added to cool
down the load prior to drain and spin.
