safe for fabric. Follow garment label instructions.
Your washer uses automatic temperature control (on some
models) to maintain a uniform water temperature by
regulating the incoming hot and cold water. This helps
eliminate undissolved detergent and ensures consistent
cleaning results. The cold wash is regulated at approximately
75°F (24°C) by adding small amounts of hot water during the
cold fill. The warm wash is maintained at approximately
100°F (38°C).
