*Sanitize with Oxi
The Sanitize With Oxi cycle, when using an Oxi additive along with your detergent, is designed to remove 99.9% of bacteria found in 
home laundry. Measure the detergent and the Oxi products carefully. Using the amounts appropriate for a large heavily soiled load 
in a top load washer, follow the detergent and the Oxi product label instructions. For the Sanitize With Oxi cycle only, add the clothes 
first and then place the detergent and Oxi product directly on top of the load. The washer hot water supply connection must provide 
a minimum of 120°F to ensure the effectiveness of this cycle.
NOTE: The default Sanitize With Oxi cycle water temperature can NOT be changed.
