About washer features.
PerfecTemp
PerfecTemp (on some models)
PerfecTemp senses the incoming water temperature and adjusts the fill water to obtain a more
precise temperature range for all three wash temperatures. You may select cold, warm or hot.
For example, in a Cold Wash selection, some warm water may be added to reach a
temperature needed to better dissolve detergents. Often, detergents are not completely
dissolved in very cold water, especially in cooler climates.
NOTE: PerfecTemp will not adjust the fill on WARM WASH unless the washer lid is closed.
Be sure to start the washer after the lid is closed.
Autosoak Option (on some models)
This option begins with a brief agitation, soaks for a specified period of time, then moves
through the rest of the cycle automatically. On some models, this option is located on the
Cycle Selector knob.
2nd Rinse Option (on some models)
When you use extra detergent or bleach to clean heavily soiled clothes, you may want to
use the 2nd Rinse option. It provides a second deep cold rinse.
Extended Spin Option (on some models)
Use this option to extract more water from your clothes. Clothes will be drier when this
option is selected, and will dry more quickly in your dryer.
(Appearance and features may vary)
The Agitator Cap or Fabric Softener Dispenser (depending on model)
The agitator cap fits into the top of the
agitator. If it accidentally comes off,
simply put it back on.
The fabric softener dispenser automatically
releases liquid fabric softener at the proper
time during the cycle.
Do not stop the washer during the first spin.
This will cause the dispenser to empty
too soon.
To use, follow these steps:
Make sure dispenser is securely attached
to agitator.
Use only liquid fabric softener.
Pour into dispenser, using amount
recommended on package.
Never pour fabric softener directly on clothes.
It may stain them.
Add water to dispenser until it reaches
the maximum fill line.
