Sort items by recommended cycle and water tempera-
ture.
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 chenille 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 the drum may transfer to
fabrics in other loads and cause skin irritation.
Prepare items for washing.
• Empty pockets.
• Brush off lint and dirt. Shake out rugs and beach towels.
• Close zippers, fasten hooks, tie strings and sashes, and
remove non-washable trims and ornaments.
• Mend rips and tears to prevent further damage during
washing.
• Turn knit items inside out to prevent pilling.
Placedelicate and small items such as bras, hosiery and
baby socks in a mesh bag.
(Mesh bag not included.)
3 Pretreat stains and heavy soil.
See Stain Removal Guide in this guide for safe, success-
fu{ stain removal instructions.
4 Add laundry load to washer.
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 such asa sweater, towel or jeans
is inefficient and may cause an out-of-balance load.
Add 1 or 2 similar items to help balance the load.
Wash a single heavy item such as a king-sized com-
forter, bedspread or sleeping bag separately.
The washer can be fully loaded, but the items should
not be tightly packed. The door should close easily.
