Clean Washer Use the Clean Washer cycle once a month to keep the inside of your washer fresh and clean. This cycle uses a higher water level in combination with liquid chlorine bleach to thoroughly clean the inside of your washing machine. See "Cleaning Your Washer." © Clean Washer USE BLEACH ONLY IMPORTANT: Do not add detergent to this cleaning cycle. Use only liquid chlorine bleach. Do not place garments or other items in the washer during the Clean Washer cycle. Use this cycle with an empty wash tub. Modifiers allow you to further customize your cycles and save energy. Soil Level (Wash Time) Soil level is preset for each cycle. See "Preset Cycle Settings" in "Cycles." As you press the Soil Level pad, the cycle time (minutes) will increase or decrease in the Estimated Time Remaining display. To get the minimum wash time, press the pad until the indicator light next to Light illuminates. This is the shortest wash time available for that cycle. T Heaw _Med Heaw t Normal MedLight ALight Soil Level ADJUSTS WASN TIME • For most loads, use the time recommended in the preset cycle settings. • For heavy soil and sturdy fabrics, press SOIL LEVEL to select more wash time, if needed. For light soil and delicate fabrics, press SOIL LEVEL to select less wash time, if needed. Spin Speed This washer automatically selects the spin speed based on the cycle selected. The preset speeds can be set at a higher or lower spin speed to match the clothes load. Spin speeds may vary by cycle. High Medium Low © Spin Speed Wash/Rinse 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 drier and more comfortable to handle. However, warm rinses may increase wrinkling. Cold rinses may help with wrinkling and save energy.

Soils may be difficult to remove. Auto Temp Control Auto Temp Control (ATC) electronically senses and maintains a uniform wash and rinse 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 is available with Warm/Warm, Warm/Cold and Cool/Cold settings. The water temperature in the Hot/Cold and Cold/Cold settings depend on the water temperature at the water inlet faucets. • ATC ensures consistent cleaning. • Heated water consumes the largest amount of energy that a washer uses. • Today's detergents work well at temperatures above 60°F (15.6°C).
