Extra Rinse An extra rinse can be used to ensure the removal of detergent or bleach residue from garments. This option provides an additional rinse with the same water temperature as the first rinse. Rinse Hold Use this option to help avoid wrinkling of your laundry when a load cannot be removed from the washer immediately. The wash cycle is paused before the final drain and spin phase so that the laundry stays in the rinse water until the cycle is continued. This provides optimal wrinkle care of your wet laundry. The door stays locked during the Rinse Hold cycle and the indicator light is flashing. Press RINSE HOLD to finish the cycle and unload the washer. Modifiers Preset cycle settings of Soil Level (cycle time), Water Temperature, and Spin Speed 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 cycles and options. ■ To change the water temperature, select the WATER TEMP button until the desired setting glows. ■ To change the spin speed, select the SPIN SPEED button until the desired setting glows. ■ To change the loudness of the Cycle End Signal, select (ADJUSTABLE) CYCLE END SIGNAL. 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 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. Temperature Guide Wash Water Temperature SUPER HOT HOT WARM COLD Suggested Fabrics Sturdy colorfast fabrics Heavy soils Sturdy colorfast fabrics Whites and pastels Heavy soils Bright colors Moderate to light soils Colors that bleed or fade Light soils In wash water temperatures colder than 60°F (15.6°C), detergents do not dissolve well.
