Using Water
This machine detects the quantity of laundry automatically, then sets the proper amount of water.
If iron is present in the water the clothes may become an all-over yellow or they may be stained with brown or
orange spots or streaks. Iron is not always visible. Installation of water softener or an iron filter may be necessary
for severe cases.
The machine sets the appropriate temperature automatically according to the wash program .
You can change the Water Temperature by pressing the WASH/RINSE button.
The temperature of the water impacts the effectiveness of all laundry additives and therefore, the cleaning
results.
We recommend temperatures of:
- HOT 49~60˚C ...(120-140˚F) White items, diapers, underclothing and heavily soiled, colorfast items.
- WARM 29~40˚C ...(85-105˚F) Most items
- COLD* 18~24˚C ...(65-75˚F) Bright colors with light soil.
When washing in COLD water additional steps may be needed:
- Adjust Detergent amount and pre-dissolve Detergent in WARM water
- Pretreat spots and stains
- Soak heavily soiled items
- Use appropriate bleach
*
Temperature below 18
˚C
...(65
˚F
) will not activate laundry additives and may cause lint, residue, poor cleaning, etc.
In addition, Detergent manufactures and care labels define COLD water as 26~29
˚C
...(80-85
˚F
).
If the temperature of the water in the tub is too cold for your hands, the Detergent will not activate and clean
effectively.
