Turn the TEMPERATURE selector to the correct setting for the
type of fabric and soils being washed. Use the warmest water

control that maintains a uniform water temperature. See
“SENSORSURE™ Temperature Control.” Follow garment label

NOTE:
In wash water temperatures colder than 70ºF
(21ºC), detergents do not dissolve well. Soils can be difficult to
remove. Some fabrics can retain wear wrinkles and have
increased pilling (the formation of small lint-like balls on the
surface of garments).
