WATER TEMPERATURE CONTROL
Your washer lets you select a wash and
rinse water temperature setting based
on the type of load you are washing.
Using warm rinse water will leave
loads dryer after the spin cycle than if
you use cold rinse water. However,
warm rinses may increase wrinkling
when line drying.
In cold climates, warm rinse water also
provides a more comfortable tempera-
ture for handling the wash toad. Warm
rinse is controlled to 75°F (24°C).
