perm press loads.

Auto Temp
Auto Temp
improves washing performance. Water
temperature can be affected by the water heater setting
and its distance from the washer, water usage in other
parts of the home and seasonally low ground water
temperatures in some geographic areas. Because most
detergents work best in wash water at a minimum of 65°
F, select Auto Temp settings for regulated wash and final
rinse water temperatures.
Auto Temp Hot
120° F (Only if water heater
temperature is greater than 120° F.)

90° F
Auto Temp Cold

NOTE:
Final rinse water temperatures are not regulated.
Spin Speed
Maximum, Fast, Medium and Slow speeds are available
for each cycle. The final spin speed and or duration vary
from cycle to cycle.

Increasing spin speed will extract more water and
decrease drying time.

Decreasing spin speed will reduce wrinkling.

Select Slow spin speed to gently spin items that
should be line dried.
