USING YOUR WASHER
Fire Hazard
Never place items in the washer that are dampened
with gasoline or other flammable fluids.
No washer can completely remove oil.
Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on
it (including cooking oils).
Doing so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow
these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
*
Empty pockets.
Loose change,
buttons, or any small obiect
can pass under the washplate
and become
trapped,
causing
unexpected
sounds.
*
Sort items by recommended
cycle, water
temperature,
and colorfastness.
*
Separate
heavily
soiled
items from Nghfly soiled.
*
Separate
delicate
items from sturdy fabrics.
Do not dry garments
if stains remain
after
washing,
because
heat can set stains into fabric.
*
Treat stains promptly.
Close zippers,
fasten
hooks, tie strings and sashes, and
remove
non-washable
trim and ornaments.
*
Mend
rips and tears to avoid
further
damage
to items
during
washing.
Helpful Tips:
"
When
washing
water-proof
or water-resistant
items, load
evenly. See _'Cycle Guide"
for tips and more information
on using the Bulky/Sheets
cycle.
Use mesh garment
bags to help avoid
tangling
when
washing
delicate
or small items.
*
Turn knits inside out to avoid pilling.
Separate
lint-takers
from lint-givers.
Synthetics,
knJts_ and corduroy
fabrics
will
pick up lint from towels, rugs, and chenille fabrics.
Always
read and follow
fabric
care label instructions
to avoid
damage
to your garments.
Add laundry
products
Add a measured
amount
of HE detergent
or
single-dose
laundry
packet
into the basket.
If using OxJ=type
boosters,
color-safe
bleach,
or fabric
softener
crystals,
add
to the bottom
of the washer
basket
before
adding
clothes.
IMPORTANT:
Use only High Efficiency
detergents.
The package
will be marked
_'HE" or _'High Efficiency."
Low=water
washing
creates
excessive
sudsing with a regular
non=HE detergent.
Using regular
detergent
will likely result in longer
cycle
times and reduced
rinsing
performance.
It may also result
in component
failures
and noticeable
mold or mildew.
HE
detergents
are made
to produce
the right amount
of suds for
the best performance.
NOTE:
Follow
the manufacturer's
instructions to determine
the
amount
of laundry
products
to use.
