BENEFITS AND FEATURES Your washer has several benefits and features that are summarized here. Some items may not apply to your model. Auto Water Level This washer senses the load size and composition through a series of fills and wash motion. It then adjusts the water level for the best cleaning and rinsing performance. It eliminates the guesswork. The water level is just right for every wash load size. NOTE: You may notice during a cycle that the wash load is not completely submerged in water. This is normal for your washer. Auto Temperature Control (ATC) The Auto Temperature Control (ATC) on this washer electronically senses and maintains a uniform water temperature by regulating incoming water temperatures. Using ATC will help dissolve detergent. Dispensers The dispensers make your washer truly automatic. It is unnecessary for you to return to the washer during the cycle to add detergent, bleach, or fabric softener. Laundry products are added to the load at the proper time in the wash cycle. Stain Treat (CATALYST _ Cleaning Action) The Stain Treat option helps to ensure better soil and stain removal. Stain Treat reduces the need for pretreatment and is safe for all fabrics. Water flushes through the dispenser to dissolve the detergent. The detergent mixture is then sprayed onto the load while the washer spins at low speed. This cleaning action will last up to 10 minutes depending on the cycle selected. The washer then stops spinning, fills with water to the appropriate level and continues washing with the selected cycle. Your new washer includes these features that help to reduce noise, increase the ease of use and improve wash performance. Electronic Controls Electronic controls with preset cycles are easy to use whether you are a beginner or an "expert." Quiet Operation This washer is insulated with sound-dampening materials to reduce washer operation sounds and noises. On some models, an additional tub wrap is added for superior vibration- and sound-dampening. Suspension System To reduce washer "walk" and "out of balance" conditions, your new washer combines: • 4 Spring damper struts to isolate vibration • Balance ring at the top and bottom of the wash basket to minimize vibration • Operating software designed to sense and correct offbalance loads Stainless Steel Basket The stainless steel basket is corrosion resistant and enables higher spin speeds for more water extraction, reducing drying time. Force Filter Wash/Rinse System This washer filters 100% of the wash and rinse water. The water is filtered then recirculated. The force filter traps sand and dirt, flushing them down the drain, so they are not redeposited onto the clean clothes. Delay Start Delay Start allows you to load your washer and pause the start of the cycle for up to 9 hours. End of Cycle Signal The End of Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the wash cycle is finished. This signal is helpful when you are removing items from the washer as soon as it stops. Spray Rinse This washer is designed to save water by rinsing the load with a spray rinse instead of a deep water rinse on some cycles. When using fabric softener, always select the Fabric Softener button, or select 2nd Rinse from the options. 12
