FEATURES AND
BENEFITS
fÜti-i
Your new washer works differently than most washers that you
are accustomed to. The most striking difference is the washer
does not have an agitator. It uses the innovative CALYPSO'^'^
Wash Motion. The Wash Piate, at the bottom of the basket, tiits
and rotates, creating a motion that iifts, rolis and bounces your
wash ioad through a mixture of water and detergent that is
continuously reapplied to the load to force out stains and soiis.
The CALYPSO™ Wash Motion
■ Is easier to load (since there is no agitator.)
■ Is gentler on clothes. There is less wear and tear on your clothes.
■ Fluffs the load after the final spin to make unloading easier.
SENSOR SMART^“ Electronic Controls
SENSOR SMART electronic controls are easy to use whether you
are a beginner or an “expert."
TRIPLE SMART™ Dispensers
The TRIPLE SMART dispensers make your washer truly
automatic. It is unnecessary for you to return to the washer
during the cycle to add detergent, bleach, or fabric softener.
Laundry products are diluted with fresh water and added to the
load at the proper time in the wash cycle.
Auto Water Level
This washer senses load size and composition, then
automatically adjusts water level for best cleaning and rinsing
performance. It eliminates the guess work. The water level is just
right for every wash load size.
Larger Load Size
Since there is no agitator, you can wash larger, bulkier items like a
sleeping bag. You are also able to wash more clothes at one time,
which means fewer loads. The KING SIZE'"''^ Capacity Plus allows
for loads such as king size bedding. You can wash a pillow or a
large stuffed teddy bear.
ULTRA QUIET PAK™
The ULTRA QUIET PAK reduces water sounds and ringing noises.
The cabinet and base are insulated with sound-dampening
materials. An additional tub wrap is added for superior vibration
and sound-dampening.
Suspension System
To reduce washer “walk” and “out of balance” conditions, your
new washer combines:
■ 4 Spring damper struts to isolate vibration
■ 2 Shock absorbers at the washer base to minimize movement
■ Balance ring at the top of the wash basket to minimize vibration
Stainless Steel Basket
The Stainless Steel basket eliminates corrosion and enables higher
spin speeds for more water extraction, reducing drying time.
High-Efficiency Wash System
Your new top loading, high-efficiency washer saves time with
fewer, larger loads, consen/es resources and lowers your water
and energy bills too.
Force Filter Wash/Rinse System
This washer filters 100% of the wash and rinse water. The water
is filtered then re-circulated. The force filter traps sand and dirt,
flushing it down the drain, so it is not re-deposited on the clean
clothes.
