Operating Instructions
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
delicate items from durable items.
DO NOT machine wash items
containing fiberglass. Small
particles of fiberglass 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
buttons, and tie strings/sashes. Remove
non-washable trims and ornaments.
• Place delicate and small items (bras,
hosiery, etc.) in a mesh bag (not included).
Mend rips and tears to
prevent further damage during
washing.
Turn knit items inside out
to prevent pilling.
3. Pretreat
stains and
heavy soil.
See stain treatment function in
Cycle
Options
for your particular model or
Stain
Removal Guide
for more information.
4. Add laundry
load to
wash tub.
• Combine large and small items in a load.
Load large items first.
• Large items should not be more than half the
total wash load.
• Washing single items is inefficient and may
cause an out-of-balance load. Add 1 or 2
similar items to help balance load.
• The washer can be fully loaded, but the
items should not be tightly packed. The
door should close easily.
DO NOT overload the washer.
DO NOT WASH: Water
resistant and water repellent
clothing or other materials.
Make sure that NO items stay
between the seal and the door.
There is a risk of water leakage
or damage to the load.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury to persons, read the Important Safety
Instructions in this
Use & Care Guide
before operating your washer.
WARNING
RISK OF INJURY
DO NOT wash water resistant and water
repellent clothing or other materials. Failure
to follow these instructions may result in
an abnormal vibrating and out-of-balance
condition that could result in physical injury,
property damage, and/or appliance damage.
CAUTION
ENTRAPMENT and TIP-OVER HAZARD
DO NOT leave the door open if there are
small children or pets present. An open door
could entice children to hang on the door or
crawl inside the washer. If there are no small
children present, you may leave the door ajar
to prevent odor build up.
