Operating Your Washer
(Mesh bag not included.)
1 Sort laundry into loads that
can be washed together.
Sort items by •
recommended
cycle and wa-
ter temperature.
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 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 fi berglass. •
Small particles of fi berglass left in the drum may
transfer to fabrics in other loads and cause skin ir-
ritation and/or damage to fabrics.
2 Prepare items for washing.
Empty pockets.•
Brush off lint and dirt. Shake out rugs and beach •
towels.
Close zippers, fasten hooks, button buttons, tie strings •
and sashes, and remove non-washable trims and
ornaments.
Mend rips and tears to prevent further damage dur-•
ing washing.
Turn knit items inside out to prevent pilling.•
Place delicate and small items such as bras, hosiery •
and baby socks in a mesh bag.
Combine large and small items in a load.•
Load large items fi rst. Large items should not be more •
than half the total wash load.
Washing single items such as a sweater, towel or •
jeans is ineffi cient 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.
3 Pretreat stains and heavy soil.

ful stain removal
