LOADING

Proper loading of your laundry center contributes to proper cleaning and fabric care and reduces machine noise.

•Use a higher water level 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).

•Reduce wash time by using a lower water level setting. Loads with only a few small items need less wash time.

LOADING TIPS - WASHER

•Drop items into washer loosely. Fill to the top of the basket (top row of holes). Do not wrap items around the agitator. Items should move easily through wash water for best cleaning and wrinkle-free results. Items should sink and reappear later.

•Load washer properly and select correct water level setting. Overloading or pack- ing the machine, 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)

•Load by the amount of space items take up, not by their weight.

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

For these suggested full-sized loads, set the WATER LEVEL Control to the

highest water level setting.
