Select a cycle with a slower wash action and spin speed;
however, items will be wetter than those using a higher speed
spin. See the "Cycle Guide" to match your load with the best
cycle.

Reduce tangling by mixing types of load items. Use the
recommended cycle for the type of items being washed.
Washer senses load size and adds correct amount of water.
This is normal and necessary for clothes to move. It is normal
for the wash load to be not completely covered in water. Added
water lifts the laundry off the washplate, resulting in less effective
cleaning.
Load items in loose heaps evenly around the washplate.
Add only 1 or 2 additional items after washer has started.
Add detergent, Oxi products, and color-safe bleach to the
bottom of the basket before adding the items.
Wash like colors together and remove promptly after the cycle
is complete to avoid dye transfer.
The suds from regular detergent can keep washer from
operating correctly.
Use only HE detergent. Be sure to measure correctly.
Always measure detergent and follow manufacturer's directions
based on load size and soil level.
Use a higher soil level cycle option and warmer wash
temperature to improve cleaning.
If using Quick Wash cycle, wash only a few items.
Use Super Wash or Normal Heavy cycle for tough cleaning. See
the "Cycle Guide" to match your load with the best cycle and
fabric type.
Use dispenser for chlorine bleach to avoid staining.
Load dispenser before starting a cycle.
Do not add products directly onto load.
Always select Fabric Softener option.
Use only liquid chlorine bleach in the bleach dispenser.
