6. Set the TEMPERATURE selector to the correct setting for the
type of fabric and soils being washed. Use the warmest water
safe for fabric. Follow garment label instructions.
Your washer uses automatic temperature control (on some
models) to maintain a uniform water temperature by
regulating the incoming hot and cold water. This helps
eliminate undissolved detergent and ensures consistent
cleaning results. The Hot and Warm settings on this washer
will be cooler than you are accustomed to. Wash
temperatures in this washer are lower than the temperatures
you may be used to in conventional washers.
NOTE: Make sure that both the hot and cold water taps are
fully turned on, or the automatic temperature control feature
will not work properly.

NOTE: In wash water temperatures colder than 60ºF
(15.6ºC), detergents do not dissolve well. Soils can be difficult
to remove. Some fabrics can retain wear wrinkles and have
increased pilling (the formation of small lint-like balls on the
surface of garments).
7. (OPTIONAL) Some models have an EXTRA RINSE selector.
For an additional rinse and spin at the end of a wash cycle,
set the EXTRA RINSE selector to ON. On some models, the
Extra Rinse feature is part of the cycle.
8. (OPTIONAL) Some models have an END OF CYCLE SIGNAL
selector. Set the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL selector to ON if
you want your washer to alert you when the wash cycle is
complete. The signal is helpful when you are washing items
that should be removed from the washer as soon as the cycle
ends.
9. Push in the Cycle Control knob and turn it clockwise to the
wash cycle you want. Reduce the wash time when using a
small load size setting. See "Selecting a Cycle and Time."
Pull out the Cycle Control knob to start the washer.

Adding bleach to models without a bleach dispenser
If desired, add measured liquid chlorine bleach after the washer
starts agitating. Pour diluted bleach around the agitator, not
directly onto the load. Undiluted bleach will damage any fabric it
touches. (See "Adding Liquid Chlorine Bleach.")
Adding softener to models without a fabric softener
dispenser
If desired, add measured liquid fabric softener to the final rinse
water. Always dilute fabric softener with ¹⁄₂ to 1 cup (125 to
250 mL) cup of warm water. Undiluted fabric softener can stain
fabrics. (See "Adding Liquid Fabric Softener.")
