Washer is less efficient at cleaning when load is tightly packed.
Load garments in loose heaps evenly around the basket wall. Load with
dry items only.
Add only one or two additional garments after washer has started.
Add detergent, Oxi products, and color-safe bleach to the bottom of the
basket before adding the load items.
The suds from too much detergent can keep washer from operating
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.
Use PowerWash
cycle for tough cleaning. See the "Cycle Guide" to
®
match your load with the best cycle.
Use dispensers to avoid chlorine bleach and fabric softener staining.
Load dispensers before starting a cycle.
Do not add products directly onto load.
Wash like colors together and remove promptly after the cycle is
complete to avoid dye transfer.
Use only liquid chlorine bleach in the bleach dispenser. Use only fabric
softener in the fabric softener dispenser.
Empty pockets, zip zippers, and snap or hook fasteners before washing
to avoid snags and tears.
Tie all strings and straps before starting wash load.
Mend rips and broken threads in seams before washing.
Load garments in loose heaps evenly around the basket wall. Load with
dry items only. Load below white plastic clothes guard.
Use cycle designed for the fabrics being washed.
Add only one or two additional garments after washer has started.
Do not pour liquid chlorine bleach directly onto load. Wipe up bleach
spills.
Undiluted bleach will damage fabrics. Do not use more than
recommended by manufacturer.
Do not place load items on top of bleach dispenser when loading and
unloading washer.
Always read and follow garment manufacturer's care label instructions.
See the "Cycle Guide" to match your load with the best cycle.

directions.

Close the lid and press POWER/START/PAUSE. The washer will not
start or fill with the lid open.
The washer may still be spinning. The lid will not unlock until the basket

loads or heavy fabrics.
Be sure laundry packet is added to washer basket before adding
clothes. Do not add packet to dispenser. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions to avoid damage to your garments.
