USING YOUR WASHER
Fire Hazard
Never place items in the washer that are dampened
with gasoline or other flammable fluids.
No washer can completely remove oil.
Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on
it (including cooking oils).
Doing so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
* Empty pockets. Loose change, buttons, or any small object
can pass under the washplate 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 water-proof or water-resistant items, load
evenly. See "Cycle Guide" for tips and more information
on using the Bulky cycle.
* 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.
Always read and follow fabric care label instructions to avoid
damage to your garments.
Add detergent
Add a measured amount of HE
detergent into the basket.
iMPORTANT" Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package
will be marked "HE" or "High Efficiency." Low=water washing
creates excessive sudsing with a regular non-HE detergent.
Using regular detergent will likely result in longer cycle times and
reduced rinsing performance, it may also result in component
failures and noticeable mold or mildew. HE detergents are made
to produce the right amount of suds for the best performance.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions to determine the amount of
detergent to use.
Using Oxl or color=safe bleach:
if using an Oxi or color=safe bleach laundry boost product, add to
the bottom of the washer basket before adding clothes.
