Using the washer

2. Load the laundry

^ Turn on the washer using the "On/Off" button.

^ Open the drum door using the "Door" button.

^ Load the laundry into the drum.

For best results, wash mixed loads of small and large items. This will im- prove washing effectiveness and help distribute the load evenly.

Note: Overloading the washer will affect wash results and cause wrinkling.

^ Close the drum door.		To prevent damage to the door seal
		and clothing, make sure that there
		are no clothes caught between the
		drum door and the seal.
