WASHER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Operating Your Washer
WARNING
To reduce the risk of re, electric shock or
injury to persons, read these IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS in this
Use and Care
Guide
before operating your washer.
STEPS TIPS IMPORTANT
1. Sort laundry into
loads that can be
washed together.
• Sort by recommended cycle and water
temperature.
• Separate white, light, and colorfast items
from dark and non-colorfast items.
• Separate items that shed lint from items
that attract lint. Casual, synthetic, knit,
and corduroy items will pick up lint from
towels, rugs, and bedspreads.
• Separate heavily soiled items from lightly
soiled items.
• Separate lacy, sheer, loosely knit, or deli-
cate items from durable items.
• DO NOT machine wash
items containing ber-
glass. Small particles of
berglass left in drum
may transfer to fabrics
in other loads and cause
skin irritation and/or
damage to fabrics.
• DO NOT wash water-
resistant and water-
repellent type clothing
or other materials
2. Prepare items for
washing.
• Empty pockets.
• Brush off lint and dirt. Shake out rugs and
beach towels.
• Close zippers, fasten hooks, button but-
tons, and tie strings/sashes. Remove non-
washable trims and ornaments.
• Place delicate and small items such as bras
and hosiery in a mesh bag (not included).
• Mend rips and tears to
prevent further dam-
age during washing.
• Turn knit items inside
out to prevent pilling.
3. Pretreat stains
and heavy soil.
• See
Stain Removal Guide
in this guide for safe, successful stain re-
moval instructions.
4. Add liquid deter-
gent or powder
detergent to
wash tub BEFORE
adding load.
• Detergent packs can also be used but may
not fully dissolve in some cycles.
• The amount of detergent required de-
pends on the type of detergent, load size,
and water hardness.
• Follow manufacturer’s
instructions for recom-
mended amount of
detergent.
• Use a low-sudsing,
high-efciency de-
tergent to prevent
oversudsing.
• Look for the
high-efciency symbol
on the detergent label.

pellent type clothing or other materials. Fail-
ure to closely follow these instructions may

ance conditions that could result in physi-
cal injury, property damage, and/or appli-
ance damage
