Wash/Rinse Temp
Select a water temperature based on the type of load you are washing. Use the warmest wash
water safe for fabrics. Follow garment [abe[ instructions.
Warm rinses leave the loads dryer than cold rinses. Warm rinses increase wrinkling. In cold
climates, a warm rinse makes the load more comfortable to handle. Cold rinses save energy.

Auto Temp Control
ATC (Auto Temp Control) electronically senses and maintains a uniform water temperature.
ATC regulates incoming hot and cold water. The ATC is automatically turned ON when a
cycle is selected. See Preset Cycle Settings table in "Cycles."
• ATC works for the wash temperature with Extra Hot/Cold, Hot/Cold, Warm/Warm, Warm/
Cold, and Cold/Cold settings.
• ATC works for the rinse temperature with the Warm/Warm setting.
• The Cold rinse temperatures depend on the cold water at your faucet.
In wash water temperatures colder than 60°F (15.6°C), detergents do not dissolve we[[.
Soils may be difficult to remove.
