This washer has an Eco Sanitize with Oxi Cycle that eliminates 

99.9% of bacteria typically found on clothing, bedding, and 

towels, based on independent, third-party laboratory testing. 

There is no carryover of bacteria between loads after the cycle 

is complete.

n  

Use the Eco Sanitize with Oxi Cycle to clean heavily soiled, 

colorfast fabrics. This combines the hottest water temperature 

to help ensure the removal of heavy soils and stains. It is  

recommended that you set your hot water heater to 120°F 

(49°C) to ensure proper performance during this cycle.

Load Size Recommendations
For best results, follow the load size recommendations noted for 

each cycle. 

Small load: Fill the washer drum with 3–4 items, not more 

than 1/4 full. 

Medium load: Fill the washer drum up to about 1/2 full. 

Large load: Fill the washer drum up to about 3/4 full. 

Extra-large load: Fill the washer drum, but make sure clothes 

can tumble freely. For best results, avoid packing tightly.
