*Desinfectado con Oxi (Sanitize with Oxi)
The Desinfectado con Oxi (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 Desinfectado con
Oxi (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 Desinfectado con Oxi (Sanitize with Oxi) cycle will use the Caliente (Hot) water setting regardless of the actual
setting on the Temperature knob. The lid will be locked during the wash cycle. INICIO/Pausa (Start/Pause) can be pressed to
unlock the lid.
