Sorting Wash Loads
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).
Loading the Washer
Load dry items loosely, no higher
than the top row of holes in the washer
basket. Overloading may reduce washer
efficiency and possibly increase wrinkling.
Bulky items should be placed as far down
in the wash basket as possible for optimal
results.
Always place buoyant items at the
bottom of the wash basket.
The washer will automatically detect the
load size. Because of the high-efficiency
wash system, the water level may not
completely cover the load. To add items
after washer has started, lift the lid, add
items and close the lid.
Do not wash fabrics containing
flammable materials (waxes,
cleaning fluids, etc.)
The washer will not fill or operate
with the lid open.
