Auto Soak
Use the Auto Soak option for loads of heavily soiled cotton, linen,
polyester or nylon with set-in stains. During Auto Soak, water will
be added to the drum and the laundry will be equally distributed
by a short tumbling phase. Laundry will then be soaked by
phases without drum movement. After soaking, the washer
drains without spinning.
■ Add detergent to both the Prewash and Main Wash
compartments of the Dispenser Drawer.
■ Use powdered detergent for the main wash cycle because
liquid detergent will seep into the washer during Auto Soak.
■ For cycles with Hot Wash Temperatures, the Soak
temperature is set to WARM, otherwise the Soak temperature
is the same as the Wash Temperature.
■ The Auto Soak and Prewash options cannot be selected in
the same cycle.
Extra Rinse
An extra rinse can be used to ensure the removal of detergent or
bleach residue from garments. This option provides an additional
rinse with the same water temperature as the first rinse.
Rinse Hold
Use this option to avoid wrinkling of your laundry when a load
cannot be removed from the washer immediately. The wash cycle
is paused before the final drain and spin phase so that the
laundry stays in the rinse water until the cycle is continued. This
provides optimal wrinkle care of your wet laundry. The door stays
locked during the Rinse Hold cycle and the indicator light is
flashing. Press RINSE HOLD to finish the cycle and unload the
washer.
Modifiers
Preset cycle settings of Water Temperature, Wash/Rinse, and
Spin Speed can be changed. You can change a modifier after
starting a cycle anytime before the selected modifier begins. Not
all modifiers are available with all cycles and options.
■ To change the water temperature, select the WATER TEMP
button until the desired setting glows.
■ To change the spin speed, select the SPIN SPEED button
until the desired setting glows.
■ To change the loudness of the End of Cycle Signal, select
END OF CYCLE SIGNAL.
■ To change cycle time, select SOIL LEVEL button.
Wash/Rinse Temp
Select a water temperature based on the type of load you are
washing. Use the warmest 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.
Temperature Guide
In wash water temperatures colder than 70°F (21°C), detergents
do not dissolve well. Soils may be difficult to remove.
ACCUWASH™ Automatic Temperature Control
The ACCUWASH™ control electronically senses and maintains a
uniform water temperature. ACCUWASH control regulates
incoming hot and cold water. ACCUWASH control is
automatically turned On when a cycle is selected. (See “Preset
Cycle Settings” in “Cycles.”)
■ ACCUWASH control ensures consistent cleaning.
■ ACCUWASH control works for all wash and rinse temperature
settings.
