Using Your Washer - Whirlpool Cabrio WTW8500 Guide D'utilisation

USING YOUR WASHER

1.
Sort and prepare your laundry
• Empty pockets. Loose change, buttons, or any small
object can pass under the washplate and become trapped,
causing unexpected sounds.
• Sort garments by recommended cycle, water temperature,
and colorfastness.
• Separate heavily soiled garments from lightly soiled.
• Separate delicate garments from sturdy fabrics.
• Do not dry garments if stains remain after washing; heat
can set stains into fabric.
• Treat stains promptly.
• Close zippers, fasten hooks, tie strings and sashes.
Remove non-washable trim and ornaments.
• Mend rips and tears to avoid further damage to garments
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 Items cycle.
• Use mesh bags to help prevent tangling when washing
delicate or small items.
• Turn knits inside out to avoid pilling. Separate lint-takers
from lint-givers. Synthetics, knits, and corduroy fabrics
will pick up lint from towels, rugs, and chenille fabrics.
NOTE: Always read and follow fabric care labels instructions
to avoid damage to your garments.

2.
Add laundry products
Add a measured of amount of detergent or single-dose
laundry packet into the basket.
If using Oxi-type boosters, color-safe bleach, or fabric
softener crystals, add to the bottom of the washer basket
before adding clothes.
NOTE: Follow the manufacturer's instructions to determine
the amount of laundry products to use.
3.
Load laundry into washer
Load garments in loose heaps evenly
around the washplate. Do not load
garments directly over the center
of the washplate; when loaded, the
center of the washplate should be
visible. Try mixing different sized garments to reduce tangling.
IMPORTANT: Garments need to move freely for best cleaning
and to reduce wrinkling and tangling.
