*Sanitize with Oxi
The Sanitize With Oxi cycle, when using an Oxi additive along with your detergent, is designed to remove 99.9% of bacteria found in
home laundry. Measure the detergent and the Oxi products carefully. Using the amounts appropriate for a large heavily soiled load
in a top load washer, follow the detergent and the Oxi product label instructions. For the Sanitize With Oxi cycle only, add the clothes
first and then place the detergent and Oxi product directly on top of the load. The washer hot water supply connection must provide
a minimum of 120°F to ensure the effectiveness of this cycle.
NOTE: The Sanitize with Oxi cycle will use the HOT water and Extra Heavy soil setting regardless of the actual settings on the
Temperature and Soil Level knobs. The lid will be locked during the wash cycle. Pause can be pressed to unlock the lid. The
Stain PreTreat option is not available.
