Add only one or two garments after washer/dryer has started. When load unbalance occurs, a washing process will start to redistribute the load. This may lengthen the cycle time. Avoid washing single items. Balance a single item such as a rug or jean jacket with a few extra items. Most cycles allow for the option of additional rinses. See "Cycle Guides" and Step 10 on page 13 for additional rinse options. Add load loosely. Items need to move freely to reduce wrinkling and tangling.
