USING YOUR WASHER 1. Sort and prepare your laundry 2. Add detergent ■■ Empty pockets. Loose change, buttons, or any small object can pass under the agitator and become trapped, causing unexpected sounds. ■■ Sort garments by recommended cycle, water temperature, and colorfastness. ■■ Separate heavily soiled garments from lightly soiled. ■■ Separate delicate garment from sturdy fabrics. ■■ Do not dry garments if stains remain after washing, because heat can set stains into fabric. ■■ Treat stains promptly. ■■ Close zippers, fasten hooks, tie strings and sashes, and remove non-washable trim and ornaments. ■■ Mend rips and tears to avoid further damage to garments during washing. Helpful Tips: ■■ When washing water-proof or water-resistant garments, load evenly. ■■ Use mesh garment bags to help avoid tangling when washing delicate or small items. ■■ Turn knits inside out to avoid pilling. Separate lint-takers from lint-givers. Synthetics, knits, and corduroy fabrics will pick up lint from towels, rugs, and chenille fabrics. NOTE: Always read and follow fabric care label instructions to avoid damage to your garments. Add a measured amount of detergent into the bottom of the washer basket before adding clothes. If using an Oxi or color-safe bleach laundry boost product, add to the bottom of the washer basket, as well. IMPORTANT: Follow the manufacturer's instructions to determine the amount of detergent to use. 6
