Empty pockets, zip zippers, and snap or hook fasteners before washing to avoid snags and tears. Tie all strings and straps before starting wash load. Mend rips and broken threads in seams before washing. Load items in loose heaps evenly around washplate. Load items should move freely during wash to avoid damage. Use cycle designed for the fabrics being washed. Add only 1 or 2 additional items after washer has started. Always read and follow garment manufacturer's care label instructions. See the "Cycle Guide" to match your load with the best cycle. Do not pour liquid chlorine bleach directly onto load. Wipe up bleach spills. Undiluted bleach will damage fabrics.
