■ Empty pockets. Loose change, buttons, or any small
object can pass under the agitator and become trapped,
causing unexpected sounds.
■ Sort items by recommended cycle, water temperature,
and colorfastness.
■ Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled.
■ Separate delicate items from sturdy fabrics.
■ Do not dry garments if stains remain after washing,
because heat can set stains into fabric.
■ Treat stains promptly.
■ Close zippers, fasten hooks, tie strings and sashes, and
remove non-washable trim and ornaments.
■ Mend rips and tears to avoid further damage to items
during washing.
Helpful Tips:
■ When washing waterproof or water-resistant items,
load evenly.
■ Use mesh garment bags to help avoid tangling when
washing delicate or small items.
■ Turn knits inside-out to avoid pilling. Separate lint-takers
from lint-givers. Synthetics, knits, and corduroy fabrics
will pick up lint from towels, rugs, and chenille fabrics.
NOTE: Always read and follow fabric care label instructions
to avoid damage to your garments.
1. Sort and prepare your laundry
Add a measured amount of HE
detergent or single-dose laundry
packet into the basket.
If using Oxi-type boosters, color-safe
bleach, or fabric softener crystals, add
to the bottom of the washer basket before adding clothes.
IMPORTANT: Use only High Efciency detergents. The
package will be marked “HE” or “High Efciency.” Using
non-HE detergent will likely result in longer cycle times and
reduced rinsing performance. It may also result in component
malfunction and, over time, buildup of mold or mildew. HE
detergents should be low-sudsing and quick-dispersing to
produce the right amount of suds for the best performance.
They should hold soil in suspension so it is not redeposited
onto clean clothes. Not all detergents labeled as High
Efciency are identical in formulation and their ability to
reduce suds. For example, natural, organic, or homemade
HE detergents may generate a high level of suds.
NOTE: Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to determine
the amount of laundry products to use.
