Available Water Temperatures
The Boosted Hot Wash will boost the water
temperature in the tub to 60°C (140°F) and is useful
for improved cleaning of some loads. The red
HEATING light will light up when heating. The cycle
will not advance until 60°C (140°F) has been reached.
The time needed to reach this temperature may add an
additional 30 to 60 minutes to the cycle time. Hot
water is the most effective for cleaning but it is not
recommended for all fabric types (read labels).
NOTE: The Boosted Hot Wash can be turned off by
changing the cycle selector knob to OFF and
restarting a cycle with a different water
temperature setting.
The Hot Wash temperature is determined by the actual
temperature of the hot water supplied to the washer.
The heater element will not be on.
The Warm Wash is useful for providing a thorough
cleaning on lightly soiled clothing without damaging
fabric or adding to colour fading.
The Warm Rinse is useful in preventing wrinkles on
certain fabrics. Check labels for fabric manufacturer’s
recommendations.
The Cold Wash is ideal for delicate items. Although its
cleaning abilities are not as great as with hot or warm
water, it is useful for colours that bleed easily and for
sensitive fabrics.
The Cold Rinse is optional in every cycle and is the
most beneficial for fabrics. Cold rinses reduce
wrinkling and colour fading. In addition, cold
rinses will save money and energy.
NOTE: Always follow manufacturer’s care labels.
