About the sanitizing wash cycle
The sanitizing wash cycle sanitizes clothes and helps remove stains.
How can a sanitizing wash remove stains more effectively?
While the laundry is being sanitized, the laundry’s fibres fold and naturally rub each other to 
facilitate the removal of stubborn stains. Also, the high temperature helps soften the material 
of the laundry, and enhances the performance of the detergent. Stains on the surface of 
the laundry are easily removed by the steam and bubbles that are generated by the high 
temperatures of the sanitizing wash cycle.
Sterilization
The sanitizing wash has a sterilization effect. Odors and most of the bacteria that cause skin 
allergies are removed by the sanitizing cycle. Keeps your clothes fresh and clean.
Bleaching
Colors become brighter as stubborn stains are removed by the sanitizing cycle.
Washing effect
The higher the water temperature, the better the washing effect.
The effects of a sanitizing wash cycle are 60% better than a normal wash. Even with a half of the 
normal amount of detergent, the effects of a sanitizing wash increase up to 20% 
Sanitizing wash instructions
•  Use caution during a sanitizing wash because the water temperature is very high.
•  To drain the water safely, do not select a high water level for a sanitizing wash. Do not put more 
than 1.5 kg (3 lb) of laundry into the tub. If you put more than 3 lb. (1.5 kg) of laundry into the 
tub, the clothes' fibers can be damaged. (Underwear: 4.5 oz/130 g; short pants: 1.75 oz/50 g; 
socks: 1.75 oz/50 g; normal towels: 5.25 oz/150 g; bath towels: 10.5 oz/ 300 g)
•  Do not supply hot water through the cold water valve. Operate the washer only after the cold 
water valve is closed. For safety reasons, add cold water to cool down the hot water while 
draining.
•  Time required to run the sanitizing wash cycle depends on the water temperature.
•  The washer is designed for a sanitizing wash. Add only cold water to the hot water to cool it 
down when the cycle is complete.
•  If only hot water is supplied, or the water hoses are connected incorrectly (hot to cold and cold 
to hot), the washer won't drain the water. If this occurs, an alarm will sound and the washer will 
display an error code.
•  The sanitizing wash cycle starts only when the door is closed.
•  Once the cycle starts, the water level cannot be changed nor can hot water be added.
