Loading and using the washer.
Always follow fabric manufacturer’s care label when laundering.
Sorting Wash Loads
Proper Use of Detergent
Using too little or too much detergent is a common
cause of laundry problems.
You can use less detergent if you have soft water,
a smaller load or a lightly soiled load.
Loading the Washer
Load dry items loosely, no higher than the top row
of holes in the washer basket. When loading wet
items, make sure you set the load/water level high
enough to allow the items to move freely. Water
level should just cover the clothes. To add items
after washer has started, lift the lid and submerge
additional items next to the agitator.
Do not wrap long items like sheets or pants
around the agitator.
Do not wash fabrics containing flammable
materials (waxes, cleaning fluids, etc.).
Agitation will not start with the lid up.
Sort by color (whites, lights, colors), soil level,
fabric type (sturdy cottons, easy care, delicates)
and whether the fabric produces lint (terry cloth,
chenille) or collects lint (velveteen, corduroy).
Do not pour anything into the agitator
if the agitator cap is removed.
