Operating Instructions
Operating Your Washer
1 Sort laundry into loads
that can be washed
together.
● Sort items
by recom-
mended 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 chenille 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
fi berglass. Small particles of fi berglass left
in the drum may transfer to fabrics in other
loads and cause skin irritation.
2 Prepare items for
washing.
● Empty pockets.
● Brush off lint and dirt. Shake out rugs and
beach towels.
● Close zippers, fasten hooks, 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.
● Combine large and small items in a load.
● Load large items fi rst. Large items should
not be more than half the total wash load.
● Washing single items such as a sweater,
towel or jeans is ineffi cient and may cause
an out-of-balance load. Add 1 or 2 similar
items to help balance the load.
● Wash a single heavy item such as a king-
sized comforter, bedspread or sleeping bag
separately.
● The washer can be fully loaded, but the
items should not be tightly packed. The
door should close easily.
3 Pretreat stains and heavy soil.
● See Stain Removal Guide in this guide for
safe, successful stain
removal instructions.
4 Add laundry load to washer.
