Operating Tips

Detergent

Use either liquid or granular laundry detergent. For best results, be sure detergent is added to the washer BEFORE the load and be sure the wash water is above 60° F.

Use the correct amount of detergent for the load size, soil level and water conditions. Use more detergent if you have hard water and very soiled loads.

If you have soft water or a lightly soiled load, use less detergent. (See manufacturer’s instructions.)

Wipe up any detergent spills on the washer.

Loading

For best results add the detergent to the washtub before adding the load.

Put dry, unfolded clothes loosely in the tub, up to the top row of holes for a maximum load.

Do not wrap large items like sheets around the agitator.

Mix large and small items for best circulation. Wash bulky items like blankets separately.

When laundering wrinkle free items or items of delicate construction, washable woolens or loosely knit items, never use less than the MEDIUM water level setting. This will minimize shrinkage, wrinkling and pulling of seams.

Close lid carefully to avoid slamming.
