Grouping Similar Items
For best results, sort clothesinto loads that can be washed
with the same wash cycle.
Different fabrics have different care requirements.
Always wash dark colors separately from light colors and
whites to prevent discoloration. If possible, do not wash
heavily soiled items with lightly soiled ones. The chart below
shows recommended groupings.
Loading the Washer
• Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty.
Items such as clips, matches, pens, coins, and keys
can damage both your washer and your clothes.
• Close zippers, hooks, and drawstrings to prevent these
items from snagging or tangling on other clothes.
• Pretreat heavily stained areas for best results.
• Combine large and small items in a load. Load large
items first.
• Large items should not be more than half of the total
wash load.
• The washer can be fully loaded, but the drum should not
be tightly packed with items. The door of the washer
should close easily.
• To prevent an out-of-balance load, do not wash single
items. Add one or two similar items to the load. Large,
bulky items, such as a blanket, comforter, or bedspread,
should be washed individually.
• Do not wash or spin waterproof items, such as rain
coats, sleeping bags, etc.
• When unloading the washer, check under the door seal
for small items.
NOTE: Make sure the door seal area is clear when
closing the door. Overloading the washer can cause
items to get caught between the door and the seal. This
can damage both the items and the seal.
