You should select the wash/rinse water temperature

based on the type of load you are washing. Always

use the warmest wash water safe for fabric and follow

garment label instructions. Depending on location, water
temperatures may vary by season. The fill rate may also

differ depending on the water temperature selected.
By selecting the Warm/Warm temperature setting, the

warm wash will be followed by an energy-saving cold
rinse followed by a warm spray rinse. This saves energy

while providing an effective rinse performance.

Adjust to load size. Clothes should move freely. To change the water level after the wash action starts, you may turn knob to

desired setting. On models with Variable Water Level Control, you can change the water level by turning the knob to Reset, then

the desired setting. This is necessary only when the change needs to be done once the machine has started to fill.

speed spin to gently remove soils and reduce wrinkles.

Rinse & Spin

Select this option if you think an extra rinse is needed. Set
OPTIONS Control (if available) to One Rinse. You should then

set the Cycle Selector (Timer) Control knob to a Rinse setting.

Spin Only

A drain and spin may help shorten drying times for some fabrics

by removing excess water. Set OPTIONS Control (if available)

to One Rinse. You should then set Cycle Selector (Timer)
