Ultra Capacity Plus

No other leading brand of front load washers handles a larger load. Toss clothes, comforters and rugs into the Ultra Capacity Plus stainless steel wash basket and skip a trip to the laundromat.

6th Sense™ Technology

Measures the size of the load and determines how much water is needed to clean it. Sensors monitor the inlet temperature, gradually warming water to keep cleaning enzymes at optimal effectiveness. Plus, sensors prevent oversudsing in low-water systems.

Catalyst® Cleaning Action

Catalyst® cleaning action allows you to clean clothes without pretreating. Prior to the wash cycle, liquid or powdered detergent is mixed with a small amount of water and directly injected as a concentrated cleaning lather into dry fabrics. As the clothes spin, a sensor ensures that the lather penetrates each fiber to remove even the toughest stains. Once all the clothes have been saturated, the spinning stops and the wash cycle starts.

Direct Inject Wash System

Penetrates stains and pretreats soils with a concentrated burst of detergent virtually eliminating the need to pretreat. The wash cycle begins only after the entire load has been treated.

AccuWash™ Temperature Control

Accurate temperatures means a cleaner wash. AccuWash™ Temperature Control adjusts wash water temperature continuously, so you get consistently good results. It automatically keeps cold washes above 60° F., the recommended temperature to dissolve detergents, and warm washes from exceeding 93° F., to help control shrinking and bleeding.

AccuWash™ Temperature Control:
- Adjusts wash temperature continuously to assure wash results
- Heats water to the necessary temperature to activate detergents
- Helps prevent fabric shrinking and bleeding
