or to let you know when something is not available. Button
sounds may be turned on or off by selecting BUTTON SOUNDS.
Save Energy Plus

savings on the higher temperature cycles (Whitest Whites and

lengthening the wash time by only 10 minutes.

Remaining display, and then select START. The countdown to the
wash cycle will show in the display window, and the button

detergents in the main wash compartment since liquid detergents
may seep out of the compartment during Delay, before the wash
cycle begins.

washer as soon as it stops. Select Loud, Soft or Off.

Wash Temp
Select a water temperature based on the type of load you are
washing. Use the warmest wash water safe for fabrics. Follow
garment label instructions.
Warm rinses leave the loads dryer than cold rinses. Warm rinses
increase wrinkling. In cold climates, a warm rinse makes the load
more comfortable to handle. Cold rinses save energy.
■ Extra Hot is available only with the Sanitary cycle
■ When used with Stain Treat option, the water is heated
gradually to assist in the removal of organic soils such as
blood.
■ In wash water temperatures colder than 60°F (15.6°C),
detergents do not dissolve well. Soils may be difficult to
remove.
