General Tips
• Check and empty pockets. Paper clips, coins, matches, etc.can damage clothing and the washer.
• Close zippers and hooks, and tie draw strings to prevent snagging or tangling of clothes.
• Pretreat heavily stained areas for best results.
• Brush off heavy soil, dust, and hair from items before washing. Excess dirt or sand can abrade other
fabrics and lead to poor wash performance.
• For best performance, load clothes as shown.
- Do not press down on items while stacking them in the drum.
- Load clothes loosely, and do not overfill the drum. Clothes need room to circulate in order to get clean.
• Combine large and small items in the drum. Load large items first. Large items should not be more than
half of total load.
• The washer can be fully loaded, but the drum should not be tightly packed with items. The door of the
washer must close easily.
• The washer will not fill or operate with the door open.
