Energy-sating Tips
Weareallconsciousof theneed
to saveenergy—toprotectour
country’senergyreservesand to
helpus savemoney.Thereare
severalthingsyou can do to reduce
theamount of energyneededto
washyour clothes:
1.UseHot Wash-up to 150°F
(65°C)—onaregularbasison(y
whenwashingheavilysoiled
articles—suchaswork and play
clothes.
2. Under normalsoilconditions,
washin water above80°1?(27UC).
Thisgenerallymeansusingthe
WarmWashtemperaturesetting
on your washer—temperatures
approximately90°F(32°C)to
110*I?(43“C)or hand comfortable.
Hyou noticethat soilhas
accumulatedafter several
consecutivewashings,useHot
Washoccasionally,if safefor
fabrics.
3. TWto washlessoften. Save
articlesof the sametypeof fabric
untilyou haveafullload.
4. If you must washsmallerloads,
adjust the amount of water.Small
Ioadsshouldhavelowerwater
levels.
5. Washin off-peak utilityhours.
Yourlocalutilitycan tellyou
whichare the off-peak hours.
6. Useyour washer’sNormal Spin.
Thiswillremovemore water
duringspin, whichwillshorten
dryingcycleto savemoreenergy.
Youcan usethe Normal Spinin
placeof the GentleSpinusually
recommendedfor Permanent
Press items.The dryingwill
removeany wrinkleswhichmay
resultfrom the Normal Spin.
7. Useyour Mini-Basket’TMtub for
verysmallloads. It useslesswater
than the smallwater levelin thebig
tub on this washer.Youwillalso
saveon determmtand enerm.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If your
clothesand householditemsdon’t
look cleanand freshafter washing,
what are youapt to do? Youwill
probably then rewashthem ...
and that meansyou’llwaste
energy.Rememberto sort your
clothescarefully,and load them
properly,selectcorrectcycles,use
enoughdetergentand choosea
watertemperaturewarmenough
to releaseandget ridof soil.
