The Fabric Softener

Compartment

If desired, pour the recommended amount of liquid fabric softener into the compartment labeled “FABRIC SOFTENER.”

Use only liquid fabric softener in the dispenser.

Dilute with water to the maximum fill line.

Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling can cause early dispensing of the fabric softener, which could stain clothes.

NOTE: Do not pour fabric softener directly on the wash load.

Instructions Operating

Loading and using the washer.

Always follow fabric manufacturer’s care label when laundering.

Sorting Wash Loads

Sort laundry into loads that can be washed together.

Colors	Soil	Fabric	Lint
Whites	Heavy	Delicates	Lint Producers
Lights	Normal	Easy Care	Lint Collectors
Darks	Light	Sturdy Cottons

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 is not recommended. This may cause an out-of-balance load. Add one or two similar items.

Pillows and comforters should not be mixed with other items. This may cause an out-of-balance load.

Preparing Clothes

Follow these steps to maximize garment care.

To avoid snags during washing:

•Close garment zippers, snaps, buttons and hooks.

•Mend seams, hems, tears.

•Empty all items from pockets.

•Remove nonwashable garment accessories such as ornaments and nonwashable trim materials.

To avoid tangling, tie strings, draw ties and belt-like materials. Brush away surface dirt and lint; treat spots and stains. Promptly wash wet or stained garments to maximize results. Mix garments using recommended maximum load sizes on page 10. Use nylon mesh garment bags to wash small items.

Wash multiple garments at one time for best results.
