Controls
Always follow instructions on fabric care labels.
Note: There is no need to select a water level
because the washer automatically adjusts the
water level to the type and size of wash load.
TEMPERATURES - This determines water temperatures
for washing and rinsing. For example, the Warm/Cold
setting provides a warm water wash and a cold water
final rinse.
Note: Detergents are not as effective at wash water
temperatures below 65°F (18.3°C).
CYCLE SIGNAL - A signal will sound at the end of
the cycle. The Cycle Signal is adjustable and can
be set at OFF or from QUIET to LOUD.
Note: If the signal is turned to the OFF position, it
will not sound at the end of the cycle.
The following chart suggests wash/rinse temperatures
for basic fabric types.
