Sorting Wash Loads

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).

Proper Use of Detergent

Add detergent and start the washer before adding clothes so
that the detergent can work effectively. 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.

Loading the Washer

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, lift the lid and submerge
additional items next to the agitator.
• Do not wrap long items like sheets or pants around the
agitator.
• Do not wash fabrics containing flammable materials
(waxes, cleaning fluids, etc.).
• Agitation will not start with the lid up.
