Whirlpool WTW4800BQ Manual De Propietario

Hot
Some cold water is added to save 

energy. This will be cooler than 

your hot water heater setting.

Warm
Some cold water will be added, so 

this will be cooler than what your 

previous washer provided.

Cool
Warm water may be added to  

assist in soil removal and to help 

dissolve detergents.

Cold
This is the temperature from your 

faucet. If your tap cold water is 

very cold, warm water may be 

added to assist in soil removal and 

help dissolve detergent.

Once you select a cycle, select the desired wash temperature 

by turning the Wash Temp knob to the appropriate setting 

based on your load. All rinses are tap cold.
NOTE: Always read and follow fabric care label instructions  

to avoid damage to your garments.

Press the START/Pause button to start the wash cycle. When 

the cycle has finished, the DONE indicator will light. Promptly 

remove garments after cycle has completed to avoid odor, 

reduce wrinkling, and rusting of metal hooks, zippers, and 

snaps.
Unlocking the lid to add garments
If you need to open the lid to add 1 or 2 missed garments:
Press START/Pause; the lid will unlock once the  

washer movement has stopped. This may take several  

minutes if the load was spinning at high speed. Then close  

lid and press START/Pause again to restart the cycle.
If lid is left open for more than 10 minutes, the water will pump 

out automatically. 

Select the desired cycle options. If you are using fabric  

softener, be sure to select one of the Fabric Softener options.

on the label with a permanent marker.
NOTE: This washer does not include inlet hoses. See the
