Solving Wash Problems
Wrinkling or Creasing
• Was the washer (or dryer) overloaded?
• Selecting the EASY IRON cycle will minimize wrinkling or creasing.
• Try selecting a slower spin speed.
• Try not to leave wet clothes sitting in the washer or laundry basket.
• Select a lower wash temperature.
Linting
• Was the washer overloaded?
• Wash lint givers, eg towels, separately from lint receivers, eg synthetics. Also, wash similar colors together (eg
light colors separately from dark colors).

• Over drying clothes in the dryer can cause them to attract lint.
• Try using High Efficiency OFF (refer to page 20), and/or select the SOFTENER option (refer to page 33) to
include more water in the wash and/or rinse.
Poor Soil Removal

of dirt?
• Are you using a good quality detergent?
• Was the washer overloaded?
• Separate heavily and lightly soiled garments.
• Use a wash temperature suitable for soil type, eg warm for greasy soils, cold for muddy soil. Try selecting
HEAVY using the soil level button.

Detergent Residue

Tangling

• Use the EASY IRON cycle to wash shirts.
• Wash bed sheets on their own using the SHEETS cycle. Try washing smaller load sizes.

Sheets and Comforter Covers Tangling or Engulfing each other

each item does not cover more than half of the basket area). Load the items in layers around the basket (2
sheets or comforter covers per layer). Ensure comforter covers are buttoned or domed closed before washing.
