Whirlpool WFL98HEBU Manuel Du Propriétaire

Sort items by recommended cycle, water temperature, and 

colorfastness. Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled. 

Separate delicate items from sturdy fabrics. Treat stains 

promptly and check for colorfastness by testing stain remover 

products on an inside seam.
IMPORTANT:

n

 

Empty pockets. Loose change, buttons, or any small object 

can plug pumps and may require a service call.

n

 

Close zippers, fasten hooks, tie strings and sashes, and 

remove non-washable trim and ornaments.

n

 

Mend rips and tears to avoid further damage to items  

during washing.

n

 

Turn knits inside out to prevent pilling. Separate lint-takers 

from lint-givers. Synthetics, knits, and corduroy fabrics will 

pick up lint from towels, rugs, and chenille fabrics.

n

 

Do not dry garments if stains remain after washing, because 

heat can set stains into fabric.

n

 

Always read and follow fabric care labels and laundry  

product instructions. Improper usage may cause damage  

to your garments.

Open the washer door. If desired, add single-dose laundry 

packet, Oxi product, or color-safe bleach to the washer drum 

before loading clothes. Place a load of sorted clothes loosely in 

the washer. Items need to move freely for best cleaning and to 

reduce wrinkling and tangling. Close the washer door by pushing 

it firmly until the latch clicks. 

n

  

Depending on load type and cycle, the washer can be fully 

loaded, but not tightly packed. Washer door should close 

easily. See “Cycle Guide” for loading suggestions.

n

  

Mix large and small items and avoid washing single items. 

Load evenly.

n

  

Wash small items in mesh garment bags. For multiple items, 

use more than one bag and fill bags equally.

Before washing clothes for the first time, fill the HE liquid dispenser 

cartridge and install in the dispenser drawer. Choose the QUICK 

WASH cycle and run it without clothes. Use only HE detergent. 

This initial cycle serves to ensure the interior is clean and the 

dispenser drawer is ready for use before washing clothes.

Single-dose laundry packet, Oxi-type boosters, color-safe 

bleach, or fabric softener crystals can be added to the drum 

prior to adding laundry.
NOTE: Do not add clothes to washer drum prior to adding 

laundry products. Always follow manufacturer’s instructions.
