SET WATER TEMPERATURE
CONTROL
Your washer lets you select a wash and
rinse water temperature setting based on
the type of load you are washing.
Using warm rinse water will leave loads
dryer after the spin cycle than if you use|
cold rinse water. However, warm rinses
may increase wrinkling when line drying.
In cold climates, warm rinse water also
provides a more comfortable temperature
for handling the wash load. Warm rinse
is controlled to 75°F.
