To obtain the best washing results, you must operate your washer properly. This section gives you this important information.

OPERATING YOUR W ASHER

Preparing clothes for washing

• Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled ones, even if they would normally be washed together.

• Separate dark colors from light colors, colorfast items from non-colorfast item.

Sorting

Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light) Separate clothes according to amount of soil. Color (White, Lights, Darks) Separate white clothes from colored clothes. Lint (Lint producers, Collectors) Wash lint producers and lint collectors separately.

Adding detergent

• Drop items into washer loosely. Items should move easily through wash water for best cleaning and wrinkle-free results.

• Load washer properly and select correct load size setting. Overloading and selecting a setting too small for the wash load can :

- Cause poor cleaning

- Increase wrinkling

- Create excessive lint

- Wear out items faster (because of pilling)

• Mix large and small items in each load. Load evenly to maintain washer balance. An unbalanced load can make the washer vibrate during spin.

• Reduce wash time when using a small load size setting. Load with only a few small items needs less wash time.

• Use a large load size setting to reduce wrinkling with permanent press clothes and some synthetic knits. These items should have more room to move in the water than heavy items. (towels, jeans)

① Detergent case

② Adding fabric softner or bleach or liquid detergent

• If desired, add measured liquid softner or bleach or liquid detergent to the softner or bleach or liquid detergent inlet.

• Pour liquid softner or bleach or liquid detergent into the dispenser using the amount recommended on the package.

• Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling can cause early dispensing of the softner or bleach or liquid detergent which could stain clothes.

• Do not open the detergent case when water is supplied.

• Avoid pouring softner or bleach or liquid detergent directly on the clothes.

• Check to see if the liquid case are even.
