Modifiers Preset cycle settings of Water Temperature, Spin Speed, and Rinse Options can be changed. You can change a modifier after starting a cycle anytime before the selected Modifier begins. Not all Modifiers are available with all options and cycles. Available modifier settings will glow amber. Current selections will glow green. If an option is unavailable with a selected cycle, the light will not illuminate. Wash Temp Select a water temperature based on the type of load you are washing. Use the warmest wash water safe for fabrics. Follow garment label instructions. Warm rinses leave the loads dryer than cold rinses. Warm rinses increase wrinkling. In cold climates, a warm rinse makes the load more comfortable to handle. Cold rinses save energy. s Extra Hot is available only with the Sanitary cycle s In wash water temperatures colder than 60°F (15.6°C), detergents do not dissolve well. Soils may be difficult to remove. s To change cycle time, select SOIL LEVEL button. s To change the water temperature, select the WASH TEMP button until the desired setting glows green. s To change the spin speed, select the SPIN SPEED button until the desired setting glows green. 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.") s ATC works for the wash temperature with Extra Hot, Hot, Warm, and Cool settings. s The Cold wash temperature depends on the cold water at your faucet. s 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 Guide Refer to this chart for suggested load types and their corresponding cycles.
