Loose change, buttons, or any small object can pass under the agitator and become trapped, causing unexpected sounds. ■ Sort items by recommended cycle, water temperature, and colorfastness. ■ Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled. ■ Separate delicate items from sturdy fabrics. ■ Do not dry garments if stains remain after washing, because heat can set stains into fabric. ■ Treat stains promptly. 4
