read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS in this Use and
Care Guide before operating your washer.

Washing Procedures
1 Sort laundry into loads that
can be washed together.
• Sort items 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 delicate items from
durable items.
• Do not machine wash items containing fi berglass. Small
particles of fi berglass left in the drum may transfer to
fabrics in other loads and cause skin irritation and/or
damage to fabrics.
2 Prepare items for washing.
• Empty pockets.
• Brush off lint and dirt. Shake out rugs and beach
towels.
• Close zippers, fasten hooks, button buttons, tie strings
and sashes, and remove non-washable trims and
ornaments.
• Mend rips and tears to prevent further damage during
washing.
• Turn knit items inside out to prevent pilling.
• Place delicate and small items such as bras, hosiery
and baby socks in a mesh bag.
4 Add a measured amount of detergent to the deter-
gent compartment.
• Follow detergent manufacturer’s directions. The
amount required depends on type of detergent, load
size and soil level, and water hardness.
3 Pretreat stains and heavy soil.
• See Stain Removal Guide in
this guide for safe,
successful stain re-
moval instructions.
Use a low-sudsing, high effi ciency detergent to
prevent oversudsing. Look for this symbol on the
detergent label:
For best results
• If using pod-type detergent
packs, place them directly
at the bottom of empty tub
BEFORE adding laundry.
