(some features only available on some models):
Proper laundry sorting is important for optimal washer performance.

“lint collectors” including synthetic garments and dress pants.
• Wash only like colored items together to prevent dye transfer.
• Deep Fill: Provides additional wash water for loads that need it.

• Deep Rinse: Provides additional rinse water, select when using liquid fabric softener or on loads that have
articles which tend to generate a lot of lint.
• Dispenser Tray: Flow through dispenser properly introduces liquid or powder detergent and/or fabric softener
at the appropriate time. A small amount of water remaining in the dispenser tray is normal.
