MAH 8700 Timer
MAH 9700 Timer
The 9700 washer
timer features two
additional cycles
not found on the
8700; Sanitary and
Enviro Plus
The Sanitary cycle delays during the first wash to heat the wash water. A 900 Watt heating
element located in the bottom of the outer tub is used to raise the water temperature to 151 degrees F.
As soon as a 151 degree F. temperature is reached the cycle resumes. The machine will delay up to 69
minutes if necessary to achieve SaniTemperature. The purpose of the 151 Degree water temperature is
to help eliminate bacteria and improve cleaning performance.
The Enviro Plus cycle uses less energy and less water than the Normal Cycle.
