SET WATER LEVEL CONTROL
This control gives you the flexibility to
save water when washing small loads.
Your washer lets you select a water
setting based on the size of your wash
load.
• For normal loads, start with the
MEDIUM LOAD Setting. Adjust up
or down depending on your load.
Clothes should move freely and roll
toward the agitator.
• To change to a higher water level
setting after the washer has started to
agitate, turn the knob to the desired
new setting.

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 drier 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..

detergents do not dissolve well. Also, soils may
be difficult to remove and some fabrics may retain wear wrinkles and have increased pilling -
the formation of small lint-like balls on the surface of garments. F'illing is the natural result of
wearing and washing of garments.
