Do not wash or dry items soiled with vegetable or cooking oils. Some oils may remain after washing and may cause the fabric to catch on fire by itself.

W527

When washing very large items, do not fill washtub as full as with other loads.

Water Level

The water level in your washer should fit the size of your wash load. Small loads will use lower water levels. There must be enough water in the washtub to allow items to move and turn over freely.

Loading the Washer

NOTE: Always add detergent first.

Load Articles

Load items by the amount of space they take up, not by their weight. Mix large and small items in a load to get the best washing results.

Drop items loosely into the washtub. The bulk of the clothes rather than the weight will determine load size. Do not pack items in or wrap them around the agitator. Overloading can cause poor cleaning, excessive wrinkling and tears.

TLW1992N

Items should move freely through the wash water for best cleaning results. Items should rollover, sink and then reappear.

Overloading the washtub can result in poor washing and rinsing.

Overloading may also cause wrinkling and tearing of items.

IMPORTANT: If in doubt, always use a higher water level. Most average loads will require a water setting between Medium and Extra Large. Failure to have the correct volume of water relative to the load will increase the incidence of excessive lint.

NOTE: Starting January 2009, the Department of Energy (DOE) mandated new efficiency standards which resulted in reduced water levels in the topload washer.

Reset (OPTIONAL)

Use the RESET if agitation has started and more water is needed for the load.
