Add clothes and detergent, then start the washer.
Using too little or too much detergent is a common
cause of laundry problems. 

You can use less detergent if you have soft water, 
a smaller load or a lightly soiled load.

Load dry items loosely, no higher than the top row
of holes in the washer basket. When loading wet
items, make sure you set the load/water level high
enough to allow the items to move freely. Water
level should just cover the clothes. To add items
after washer has started, open the lid and add the
additional items. Close the lid. Washer will start
automatically.

■ Do not wash fabrics containing flammable materials

Wash Basket: Leave the lid open after washing to
allow moisture to evaporate. If you want to clean the
basket, use a clean soft cloth dampened with liquid
detergent, then rinse. (Do not use harsh 
or gritty cleaners.)

Fill Hoses: Hoses connecting washer to faucet
should be replaced every 5 years.

Exterior: Immediately wipe off any spills. Wipe 
with damp cloth. Try not to hit surface with 
sharp objects.

Moving and Storage: Ask the service technician to
remove water from drain pump and hoses. Do not
store the washer where it will be exposed to the
weather.

Long Vacations: Be sure water supply is shut off at
faucets. Drain all water from hoses if weather will 
be below freezing.

Sort by color (whites, lights, colors), soil level, fabric
type (sturdy cottons, easy care, delicates) and
whether the fabric produces lint (terry cloth,
chenille) or collects lint (velveteen, corduroy).
