Some fabrics will feel wetter when rinsed with cold water. Check fabric softener package for instructions and follow directions for using dispenser. Make sure you have selected the Fabric Softener option. Pretreat stain and rewash. Sort whites or lightly colored items from dark colors. Use more detergent (especially with larger loads). Be sure to follow detergent manufacturer's directions. Use a water conditioner like Calgon brand or install a water softener. Make sure water heater is delivering water at 120°F-140°F (48°C-60°C). Select load size to match clothes load. Add detergent before you load items. Sort clothes by color. If fabric label states wash separately, unstable dyes may be indicated. If you do not dry your clothes with a clothes dryer, your clothes may retain more lint. Separate lint producers from lint collectors. Wash small loads for a shorter time than larger loads. Add detergent before you load items. Try a liquid detergent. Use warmer water temperature. Load clothes loosely in the washer basket. Adjust load size based on items size and materials. Make sure load size selected matches clothes load size. Check fabric softener package for instructions and follow directions for using dispenser. Make sure you have selected the Fabric Softener option. Troubleshooting Tips Consumer Support 9
