Note: Do not use the "HEAVY Wash" program for woolen clothing. Note: Loading the Washer • Load each item loosely. • Separate the white from the colored clothing. Separate heavy fabrics from light fabrics. • Carefully check all pockets and cuffs for foreign items. They can easily slide into the tub and cause damage to the tub and/or make disturbing noises during cycles. • Always balance the laundry load evenly within the washer tub, so there is no single heavy areas and all the laundry is evenly distributed. Lint Filter and Water Filter • The Lint filter is located inside the washer drum. A small nylon bag collects lint and residue from clothes during the wash cycle. Note: NEVER wash your clothes without the filter in its compartment inside the tub. • You must clean the filter after every load for the best results. Push down the tab in the filter to remove. Clean and slide the filter back in place. • There is also a filter in the water inlet valve. This prevents foreign particles in the water from entering the washer. Clean this at least once a month. 16
