A WINNING
COMBINATION
Just because a washer is tough on dirt and stains
doesn’t mean it needs to be tougher on your clothes.
Our Wave™ Series washer is loaded with some hard-
hitting innovations like WaveForce™ technology, which
combines rapid drum movement with powerful water
jets for great cleaning. It’s also gentle on your utility
bill with smart options like ColdWash™, which gives
you warm water performance with cold water savings.
Now using the cold cycle on your washer
doesn’t have to mean compromising.
ColdWash™ Technology uses cold water and
enhanced washing motions to penetrate
deep into fabrics, giving you cold water
savings with warm water performance.
If you thought water had done all it could to
clean your clothes, you haven’t experienced
WaveForce™ Technology. Rapid drum
movement and powerful water jets provide
a revolutionary washing and rinsing
experience.
Towers of towels, piles of sweatshirts, and
a mountain of jeans? Go for it. The Ultra-
Capacity (4.7 cu.ft.) washer lets you do
more laundry in fewer loads. That’s time
saved and sore backs avoided.
