Eneqgy-Sa~ Tips
If your clothes and household items
don’t look clean and fresh after
washing, you will probably re-wash
them ...and that means you’ll waste
energy. Remember to sort your
clothes carefully, and load them
properly, select correct cycles, use
enough detergent and choose a
water temperature warm enough to
release and get rid of soil.
●Use Hot Wash—upto 150°F.—on
aregular basis only when washing
heavily soiled articles-such as
work and play clothes.
●Under normal soil conditions,
wash in water above 80°F. (27°C.).
This generally means using the
WarmWashtemperature setting
on your washer—temperatures
approximately 90° to llO°F.or
hand comfortable. If you notice
that soil has accumulated after
several consecutive washings, use
Hot Washoccasionally, if safe
for fabrics.
●Try to wash less often. Save
articles of the same type of fabric
until you have afull load.
●If you must wash smaller loads,
adjust the amount of water. Small
loads shouldhavelowerwaterlevels.
.Wash in off-peak utility hours.
Yourlocal utility can tell you which
are the off-peak hours.
●Use Normal Spin Speedto remove
more water and help lessen drying
time. The dryer will remove any
wrinkles causedbythe Normal Spin.
●Use your Mini-BasketTMtub for
very small loads. It uses less water
than the small water level in the big
tub on this washer. You will also
save on detergent and energy.
How to use the
Bleach Dispenser @
●Use this dispenser with liquid
bleach only. If you prefer to use
powdered bleach, pour it into the
wash basket along with your
detergent. Do not put powdered
bleach into the bleach dispenser.
●Measure bleach carefully. Here
are some recommended amounts:
LARGE WATERLEVEL—1%CUP
(310ml) liquid
SMALL WATER LEVEL–213 CUP
(170ml) liquid
MINI-BASKET tub—1/4 CUP
(60 ml) liquid
.Pour measured amount of liquid
bleach directly into bleach dispenser.
●Do not overfill or allow dispenser
to overflow. Avoid splashing.
Undiluted bleach can cause fabric
damage.
cNever pour undiluted liquid
bleach directly onto clothes or
into the wash basket or Mini-
Basket tub.
