Loading and using the washer.
Sorting Wash Loads
Sort by color (whites, lights, colors), soil level,
fabric type (sturdy cottons, easy care, delicates),
and whether the fabric produces lint (terry cloth,
chenille), or collects lint (velveteen, corduroy).
Proper Use of Detergent
Using too little or too much detergent is a common
cause of laundry problems.
Loading the Washer
Load dry items loosely, no higher than the
top row of holes in the washer basket.
When loading wet items make sure you set
the load/water level high enough to allow
the items to move freely. Water level should
just cover the clothes. To add items after
washer has started, lift the lid and submerge
additional items next to the agitator.
Always follow fabric manufacturer's care label when laundering.
You can use less detergent if you have soft water, a
smaller load, or a lightly soiled load.
Do not wrap long items like sheets or pants
around the agitator.
Do not wash fabrics containing flammable
materials (waxes, cleaning fluids, etc.).
Agitation will not start with the lid up.
