• Wash full loads. Oversize loads use extra energy. Undersize loads waste energy.

••

• When small wash loads cannot be avoided, use lower water levels.

••

• Select the appropriate cycle and time for each load. Shorten wash times for lightly soiled loads.

••

• To reduce drying time, select a fast spin speed to remove more water from heavy items such as towels and jeans.

••

• Use warm water to wash most loads. Limit hot water washes to heavily soiled and white loads. Use cold water for lightly soiled items and rinsing.

••

• Operate the washer in early morning and late evening when utility demands are low.

••

• Follow proper laundry procedures to avoid rewashing.
