The water temperature in the Hot/Cold and Cold/Cold settings depends 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).

Fabric Softener Fabric Softener option must be selected if liquid fabric softener is added to the fabric softener dispenser.

Extra Rinse An Extra Rinse can be used to aid in the removal of detergent or bleach residue, or particulates such as sand and lint, from the load.

During drain If water is drained quickly from your washer (depending on your installation), you may hear air being pulled through the pump during the end of draining.
