LOADING

Proper loading of your washer con-

tributes to proper cleaning and fabric

care and reduces machine noise,

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 packing 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.

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 SUGGESTIONS

For these suggested full-sized leads, set the WATER LEVEL Selector to the

highest water level setting.
