The water heater setting and its distance from the washer, water usage in other parts of the home, and seasonally low ground water temperature in some geographic areas can affect water temperature. Sanitize (on select models) Use the sanitize setting to clean and sanitize heavily soiled, colorfast fabrics including towels, bedding, cloth diapers, and children’s clothing. It is recommended that you set your water heater to 120°F (49°C) or higher to ensure proper performance during this cycle. If the setting is lower or the load is extra large, the cycle time may be extended. When used with the heavy duty, towels, optic whites and whitest whites, cycles, the sanitize setting will kill 99.9% of bacteria with no carryover of bacteria between loads. No bleach or harsh chemicals are needed, but higher temperatures are required. Check fabric care labels to prevent damage.

NOTE The Heavy Duty, Towels, Optic Whites and Whitest Whites with Sanitize setting cycles have been designed to meet the requirements of NSF P172 protocol for sanitization efficacy. NSF Protocol P172 Sanitization Performance of Residential and Commercial, Family-Sized Clothes Washers

NOTE If the voltage at your outlet is under 110v, the internal heater may not adequately heat the wash water. If the cycle is interrupted while the water is heating, the final temperature of the wash water may be lower and sanitation may be reduced. The wash water is heated by an internal boost heater to a maximum of 152°F (67°C) as the load tumbles. Cold water is added to cool down the load prior to drain and spin. As a precaution, the washer door remains locked when the water temperature reaches 130°F (55°C)

NOTE If the wash cycle is paused or canceled while the internal drum temperature is above 130°F (55°C), the door will remain locked until it cools. You may manually perform a Rinse & Spin cycle to cool the internal temperature sooner. Allergen (on select models) Removes dust mites and dander from household objects. The temperature does increase on this setting. 28 ENGLISH NOTE The Heavy Duty, Optic Whites and Towels cycles with the Allergen option selected have been designed to meet the requirements of the NSF P351 protocol for allergen reduction efficacy. These cycles and settings will kill dust mites and eliminate at least 95% of pet dander. Since higher temperatures are required, please check fabric care labels to prevent damage. NSF Protocol P351Allergen Reduction Performanceof Residential and Commercial,Family-Sized Clothes Washers Hot Use this setting for heavily soiled white or colorfast cottons and blends. Warm Use this setting for normally soiled white or colorfast cottons or blends. Eco Cold (on select models) Wash and rinse temperatures are equivalent to temperature of cold tap supply. Use this selection for fabrics and colors that are prone to dye transfer. For use with cold water detergents.

NOTE The washer will always use a small amount of hot water to dissolve the pack when the PODS® option has been selected. Soil level Adjust the wash time based on the soil level of each load. Solid Soil (on select models), Heavy, Normal, Light and Extra Light (on select models) soil levels are available. Spin speed Max (on select models), High, Medium and Low (on select models) spin speeds are available for each cycle. The spin speed and/or duration of final spin vary from model to model and cycle to cycle. Increasing the spin speed will extract more water, decrease drying time and conserve energy. Decreasing the spin speed will reduce wrinkling. Select low spin speed (on select models) to gently spin items that should be line dried. Use no spin to omit the final spin at the end of the cycle. The load will be very wet. Remove items from the wash drum to drip dry or select a spin only cycle to remove excess water at a more convenient time.

The default options for each cycle will automatically be chosen when a cycle is selected. To protect fabrics, not all options are available for all cycles. If an option is not available for a cycle, the indicator will not light. Selecting options Press the Options button to scroll though the options until the indicator light for the desired option flashes, then press Select.
