Combine large and small items in one full
load. When washing single items such as a sweater, towel or jeans, add 1 or 2 similar items to help balance the load. Single, heavy items such as a bathrobe can be washed separately.
Do not wash rugs that could come apart and clog your machine.
For more delicate garments protect under- wear, tights, stockings and other small or delicate items by placing them in a mesh laundry pouch while washing and drying.
When using the ‘Wool’ cycle, for best results, use a detergent that is for wool garments, taking care not to wash more than 2.2 lbs.
Splendide laundry tips
•Wash cycles are 30 to 96 minutes.
•Dry times for average sized loads are 60 to 80 minutes
•Wash cycles use 7 to 18 gal. of water. YOU MAY NOT SEE WATER IN THE DRUM. This is normal.
•Once set, the DRY TIME, WATER TEMP and CYCLE SELECTOR knobs won’t move.
•The door automatically locks during the wash and dry cycles. To unlock the door, access the drum, then RESUME the cycle, see DOOR LOCK LED on page 13.
For best results,
•DON’T OVERLOAD THE DRUM. Keep up with laundry by doing smaller loads every day or two.
•DON’T EXCEED RECOMMENDED DETERGENT OR FABRIC SOFTENER AMOUNTS.
•When going from
•ONLY use ‘Cotton Heavy Duty’ for heavy cottons (towels, jeans, etc.)
•For items that may wrinkle, use ‘Low Spin’ in wash and ‘Synthetics Dry’
•To further prevent wrinkles, set a ‘wash ONLY’ cycle with ‘LOW SPIN’ pressed. After the wash cycle ends, remove large items (pants, sheets, etc.) from the drum and shake them out. Loosely fold them and place them back in the drum. Then set a ‘Synthetics Dry’ cycle with ‘LOW HEAT’ pressed.
•For mixed DRY CYCLE loads, remove items that may wrinkle while still damp (dress shirts, etc.) Hand press and hang them. Then, continue drying the rest (underwear, towels, etc.)
•NEVER OVER DRY LAUNDRY. Over drying is a major cause of wrinkling. A certain amount of humidity is what makes fabrics soft and fluffy.
