ENERGY-SAVING TWS

If your clothes and household items don’t look clean and fresh after washing, you will probably rewash them... and that means you’ll waste energy. Remember to sort your clothes carefully, and load them properly, select correct cycles, use enough detergent and choose a water temperature warm enough to release and get rjd of sojl.

●Use Hot Wash—up to 150”F. (65°C.)+n a regular basis only when washing heavily soiled articles-such as work and play clothes.

●Under normal soil conditions, wash in water above 80°F. (27°C.). This generally means using the Warm Wash Temperature setting on

your washer—temperatures approximately 90°F.– 11 O°F. (32°C.-380C.) or hand comfortable. If you notice that soil has accumulated after several consecutive washings, use Hot Wash occasionally, if safe for fabrics.

●Try to wash less often. Save articles of the same type of fabric until you have a full load.

●If you must wash smaller loads, adjust the amount of water. Small loads should have lower water levels.

“Use Normal Spin Speed to remove more water and help lessen drying time. The dryer will remove any wrinkles caused by the Normal Spin.

●Use your Mini-Basket tub for very small loads. It uses less water than the small level in the big tub on this washer. You will also save on detergent and energy.

●Wash in off-peak utility hours. Your local utility can tell you which are the off-peak hours.
