Washing a load of laundry Quick start 1 Press the Power button. 2 Select a wash cycle. (Defaults are set for each cycle. These default settings can be changed.) 3 Press the Start/Pause button to start the cycle. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS on page 3 before operating your washer. Step 1: Selecting a detergent Your washer is designed to use high efficiency (HE) detergents. • For the best cleaning results, use an HE detergent. We recommend that you don't use a regular detergent. HE detergents contain suppressors that reduce or eliminate suds. When fewer suds are produced, the load tumbles more efficiently and cleaning is maximized. • Reducing the amount of detergent may reduce the quality of cleaning. Make sure that you: • Pre-treat stains • Sort carefully by color and soil level • Avoid overloading Step 2: Turning on your washer • Press the Power button to turn on your washer. Your washer's initial settings are: • Normal cycle • Warm temperature • Medium spin speed Step 3: Loading your washer CAUTION: Before loading your laundry, make sure that you remove coins, keys, and other hard objects, and that you close zippers. These items may damage clothes. 1 Sort laundry by fabric type, soil level, color, and load size. 2 Fill the tub with dry, unfolded clothes. Load the tub no more than 3/4 full. For best performance, the maximum load size should be less than 18 lbs. (8.16 kg). 26 www.insigniaproducts.com
