OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Cycle Settings, continued Sanitize (on select models) This setting sanitizes heavily soiled colorfast fabrics such as towels, bedding, and children's clothing by killing 99.9% of bacteria using wash water heated with a boost heater to 152° F (67° C). Cold water is used to cool and rinse the load. Í NOTE This setting has been certified by NSF International, an independent third party testing and certification organization dedicated to public health, safety and environmental protection. NSF Protolcol P172 Sanitization Performance of Residential and Commercial, Family-Sized Clothes Washers Auto Temp Hot Use this setting for heavily soiled white or colorfast cottons and blends. Auto Temp Warm Use this setting for normally soiled white or colorfast cottons or blends. Auto Temp Cool (on select models) Use this setting for normally soiled sheets, casual items and washable woolens. Auto Temp Cold Some warm water will automatically blend with cold tap supply to achieve a precise Auto Temp Cold. Use this setting for lightly soiled non-colorfast items, knits, delicates, and hand washables. Cold Water Clean Wash and rinse temperatures are equivalent to temperature of cold tap supply. Use this selection for fabrics and colors that are prone to dye transfer. For use with cold water detergents. SPIN SPEED Max, High, Medium and Low spin speeds are available for each cycle. The spin speed and/or duration of final spin vary from model to model and cycle to cycle. Increasing the spin speed will extract more water, decrease drying time and conserve energy. Decreasing the spin speed will reduce wrinkling. Select Low spin speed to gently spin items that should be line dried. Use No Spin to omit the final spin at the end of the cycle. The load will be very wet. Remove items from the wash drum to drip dry or select a Spin Only or Rinse and Spin cycle to remove excess water at a more convenient time. SOIL LEVEL Adjust the wash time in 3-minute increments based on the soil level of each load. Heavy, Normal, and Light soil levels are available. Cycle Options To select or delete the Chime, Stain Clean, Energy Saver, or Fresh Water Rinse, press Options until the blinking light indicates the desired option. Then, while it is blinking, press Select. The indicator will light when the option has been selected. It will no longer be lighted when the option has been removed. Not all options are available on every model or are compatible with every cycle. The indicator will not light if the option is not available with that cycle. Í NOTE To change the options once the cycle has begun, press the pause button, make the new selection and press start again. The options selected for the cycle will be remembered and recalled each time that cycle is selected in the future. To return to factory settings, press the Start/Pause and Select buttons at the same time and hold until the signal sounds. Chime A signal will sound at the end of the cycle if this option is selected. The signal has an adjustable volume level or can be turned off. Stain Clean Use the Stain Clean option to add a 5-minute soak in the middle of the wash portion of any cycle except Quick Wash and Delicates. Energy Saver (on select models) The Energy Saver option reduces the warm water temperature a few degrees to save energy and also extracts more water to reduce drying time. Extended Spin (on select models) Use this option to add minutes to the final spin at the selected Spin Speed. This will improve water extraction, decrease drying time and save energy. Freshwater Rinse Use this option when additional rinsing is desired to remove excess dirt and detergent. It is recommended for heavily soiled loads or if household members have sensitive skin. 12
