ENERGY-SAVING TWS

If your clothes and household items don’t look clean and fresh after washing, you will probably rewash them.. and that means you’ll waste energy. Remember to sort your clothes carefully, and load them properly, select correct cycles, use enough detergent and choo.ye a water temperature warm enough to release and get rid of roil.

●Try to wash less often. Save articles of the same type of fabric until you have a full load.

●If you must wash smaller loads, adjust the amount of water. Small loads should have lower water levels.

●Always rinse in cold water. The temperature of the rinse does not affect cleaning.

●Wash in off-peak utility hours. Your local utility can tell you which are the off-peak hours.

c Use your washer’s Normal Spin. This will remove more water during spin, which will shorten drying cycle to save more energy.

●Use your Mini-Basket tub for very small loads. It uses less water than the small water level in the big tub on this washer. You will also save on detergent and energy.
