Auto Temp Control
ATC (Auto Temp Control) electronically
senses and maintains a
uniform water temperature.
ATC regulates incoming hot and cold
water. The ATC is automatically
turned on when a cycle is
selected. (See "Preset Cycle Settings" in "Cycles.")
•
ATC works for the wash temperature with Extra Hot, Hot,
Warm, and Cool settings.
•
The Cold wash temperature
depends on the cold water at
your faucet.
•
ATC works for the rinse temperature where the wash temp
setting is marked with an asterisk, such as Warm*. All other
rinse temperatures
are cold.

LAUNDRY TIPS
Preparing
clothes
for washing
Follow these recommendations
to help you prolong the life of
your garments.
•
Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package for this type
of detergent will be marked "HE" or "High Efficiency." This
wash system, along with less water, will create too much
sudsing with a regular non-HE detergent. Using regular
detergent will likely result in washer errors, longer cycle times
and reduced rinsing performance. It may also result in
component
failures and noticeable mold or mildew. HE
detergents are made to produce the right amount of suds for
the best performance. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions
to determine the amount of detergent to use.
Use only HE High Efficiency detergenL
•
Close zippers, snaps, and hooks to avoid snagging other
items. Remove pins, buckles, and other hard objects to avoid
scratching the washer interior. Remove non-washable
trim
and ornaments.
•
Empty pockets and turn them inside-out.
•
Turn down cuffs; brush away lint and dirt.
•
Turn wool and synthetic
knits inside-out to avoid pilling.
•
Tie strings and sashes so they will not tangle.
•
Mend tears, loose hems, and seams.
•
Treat spots and stains.
•
Stained or wet garments should be washed promptly for best
results.
•
Mix large and small items, avoid washing single items, and
load evenly.
