FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Audio Visual Electronic Controls
Flexible electronic controls are easy to use whether you are a
beginner or an expert.
Detergent Advantage System Dispenser
The four compartments in the dispenser allow loading of all
laundry products before the washer is started. The products will
be dispensed into the wash at the optimal time for
high-performance cleaning. TIMED BLEACH™ release is
included in the detergent advantage system. The detergent is
added at the beginning of the cycle, and the bleach is added
after the enzymes have had a chance to do their cleaning. The
fabric softener is dispensed in the rinse cycle. The Detergent
Advantage System Dispenser tray can easily be removed for
cleaning.
Auto Water Level
Adjusting to the size of the load, this feature allows the washer to
use the minimal amount of water needed to clean and rinse the
clothes. With a low water level, you can obtain the same results
with smaller amounts of laundry products. Because only the
required amount of water is used, the washer saves energy, too.
Larger Load Size
Since there is no agitator, you can wash larger, bulkier items such
as an average size sleeping bag, pillow or a king size comforter.
You are also able to wash more clothes at one time, which means
fewer loads.
Suspension System
To reduce washer "walk" and "off-balance" conditions, your new
washer combines:
2 Springs to isolate vibration
4 Shock absorbers at the washer base to minimize movement
Stainless Steel Drum
The stainless steel drum eliminates corrosion and enables higher
spin speeds for more water extraction, helping to reduce drying
time.
High-Efficiency Wash System
Your new front-loading, high-efficiency washer saves time with
fewer, larger loads. It also conserves resources and lowers your
water and energy bills.
Spin Speeds
This washer automatically selects a spin speed based on the
cycle selected. This factory setting can be changed, however,
with up to six different spin speed choices.
Thermal Optimizer with Smart Wash Technology
The heating system ensures that the wash water is heated to the
preset temperature for Heavy Duty, Whitest Whites, and the
Sanitary cycles. It also provides Smart Wash Technology with
"Stepped Cleaning" when you are using the Sanitary cycle.
"Stepped Cleaning" starts the wash cycle with warm water to
remove stains (such as blood or grass).
Add Clothes
This option is available in all wash cycles except Rinse/Spin,
Drain/Spin and Clean Washer. When this option is available at the
beginning of the cycle, the Add Clothes status light will illuminate
for the first 8 minutes. This washer allows a 8-minute period in
which other garments may be added to a load.
Catalyst ® Cleaning Action
A concentrated detergent solution is sprayed onto the clothes at
the beginning of the cycle to ensure that the detergent comes
into contact with the clothes as quickly as possible, helping to
remove stains from your clothes without pretreating.
Dynamic Balance
A precision balancing system that allows the washer to reach
spin speeds of up to 1,050 rpm. The washer spins faster so that
clothes coming out of the washer will dry faster. In addition, if the
Dynamic Balance system detects off-balance loads during
spinning, it redistributes the clothes so that they are evenly
balanced.
