and water temperature.

• Separate white, light and colorfast items from dark and non-colorfast items.

• Separate items that shed lint from items that at- tract lint. Casual, synthetic, knit, and corduroy items will pick up lint from towels, rugs, and che- nille 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 fiberglass. Small particles of fiberglass left in the drum may transfer to fabrics in other loads and cause skin irritation.

2 Prepare items for washing.

• Empty pockets.

•Brush off lint and dirt. Shake out rugs and beach towels.

•Close zippers, fasten hooks, 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.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

• Place delicate and small items such as bras, hosiery and baby socks in a mesh bag.

(Mesh bag not included.)

3Pretreat stains and heavy soil.

• See Stain Removal Guide in this guide

for safe, success- ful stain removal instructions.

4Add laundry load to washer.

•Combine large and small items in a load.

•Load large items first. Large items should not be more than half the total wash load.

•Washing single items such as a sweater, towel or jeans is inefficient and may cause an out-of-bal- ance load. Add 1 or 2 similar items to help balance the load.

•Wash a single heavy item such as a king-sized comforter, bedspread or sleeping bag separately.

•The washer can be fully loaded, but the items should not be tightly packed. The door should close easily.
