BENEFITS AND FEATURES
Your washer has several benets and features that are summarized here. Some items may not apply to your model.
Benets
High-Efciency Wash System
Your new top loading, high-efciency washer saves you time by
allowing you to do fewer, larger loads. It also conserves resources
and helps lower your water and energy bills by using the following
innovations.
Auto Water Level
This washer senses the load size and composition through a
series of lls and wash motion. It then adjusts the water level for
the best cleaning and rinsing performance. It eliminates the
guesswork. The water level is just right for every wash load size.
NOTE:
Y
ou may notice during a cycle that the wash load is not
completely submerged in water. This is normal for your washer.
Care Control Temperature Management
The Care Control Temperature Management system on this
washer electronically senses and maintains a uniform water
temperature by regulating incoming water temperatures. Using
Care Control will help dissolve detergent.
Hydro Plate Wash System
Your new washer works differently than most washers that you are
accustomed to. The most striking difference is that the washer
has an hydro plate wash system. It uses this new innovative hydro
plate at the bottom of the wash basket to move your load through
a mixture of water and detergent. The load is moved from the
outside toward the middle with items coming up in the center and
down on the outside edges.
Dispensers
The dispensers make your washer truly automatic. It is
unnecessary for you to return to the washer during the cycle to
add detergent, bleach, or fabric softener.
Laundry products are added to the load a
t the proper time in the
wash cycle.
Spin Speeds
This washer is preset to automatically select the spin speed based
on the cycle selected. Depending on your wash load, you can
change the preset speeds. The spin speed on this washer is
nearly twice as fast as that of a conventional washer. You may
notice different sounds during a spin cycle because of this higher
rate of speed.
Deep Clean Cleaning Action
The Deep Clean option uses Direct Inject Cleaning Action to help
ensure better soil and stain removal. Deep Clean reduces the
need for pretreatment and is safe for all washable fabrics. Water
ushes through the dispenser to dissolve the detergent. The
detergent mixture is then sprayed onto the load while the washer
spins at low speed. This cleaning action will last up to 5 minutes
depending on the cycle selected. The washer then stops spinning,
lls with water to the appropriate level and continues washing with
the selected cycle.
High Efciency (HE) Detergent
This washer is designed for High Efciency (HE) detergent use
only. HE detergents are made to produce the right amount of suds
and give the best performance in low water wash systems.
Features
Innovative Features
Your new washer includes these features that help to reduce
noise, increase the ease of use and improve wash performance.
6th Sense
®
Technology
6th Sense
®
Technology features built-in intelligence that “knows
each wash load” for optimal cleaning, fabric care and efciency.
From weighing the size of the load to determining how much
water is needed to clean it, the 6th Sense
®
combination of
intuitive features takes the guesswork out of clothes care. Three
levels of off-balance protection and a suds detection sensor help
ensure worry- and error-free operation for further peace of mind.
Electronic Controls
Electronic controls with preset cycles are easy to use whether you
are a beginner or an "expert."
Quiet Operation
This washer is insulated with sound-dampening materials to
reduce washer operation sounds and noises. On some models,
an additional tub wrap is added for extra dampening of vibration
and sound.
