washed together.
Empty pockets.
Place delicate items in a mesh bag.
Follow the guidelines below for preparing the wash load.
Read the Operating Instructions card for operating your specific model.
Always read and follow fabric care and laundry product labels.
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons, read
Important Safety Instructions, pages 3-4, before operating this washer.
1. Sort laundry into loads that can be washed together.
Sort items by recommended water temperatures and wash time.
Separate white, light, and colorfast items from dark and noncoloffast
items.
Separate items which shed lint from items which attract lint. Permanent
press,synthetic, knit and corduroy items will pick up lint from towels, rugs
and chenille bedspreads.
Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled items.
Separate lacy, sheer and loosely knit items from sturdy items.
Do not machine wash items containing fiberglass. Small particles of
fiberglass left in the drum may stick to fabrics in other loads and causeskin
irritation.
2. Prepare items for washing.
Empty pockets.
Brush off lint and dirt. Shake out rugs and beach towels.
Closezippers,fasten hooks,tie strings and sashes,and remove nonwashable
trims and ornaments.
Remove pins, decorative buttons, belt buckles, and other objects which
could be damaged. This also helps protect other items in the wash load.
Mend rips and tears to prevent further damage during washing.
Place delicate items such as bras, shoulder pads, hosiery, and belts in a
mesh bag to prevent tangling during the wash cycle.
Turn knit items inside out to prevent pilling.
3. Pretreat stains and heavy soil.
See Stain Removal, pages 7-8, for details.
4. Add laundry load to washer.
Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items first. Large items
should not be more than half the total wash load.
Washing single items such asa sweater, towel or jeans may cause an out-
of-balance load. Add 1 or 2 similar items to help balance the load.
Single heavy items such as a bedspread can be washed separately.
The washer can be fully loaded, but the items should not be tightly packed.
The door should close easily.

\
\
A OPENING AND CLOSING THE DISPENSER DRAWER
• Slowlyopen thedispenserdrawerbyfirstslidingthe
safety latch to the right, then pulling the drawer out
until it stops.
• After adding laundry products, slowly close the
dispenser drawer. Closing the drawer too quickly
could result in early dispensing of the bleach and
fabric softener
• Laundry products used with powder or liquid
detergent, such as color-safe bleach, water
conditioner, detergent booster, and enzyme products
should be added to the empty tub before loading.
Note: From time to time you may see water in the
bleach and fabric softener compartments. Thisis a result
of the siphoning action and is part of the normal
operation of the washer.
B, DETERGENT
• Add measured detergent to the detergent
compartment of the dispenser drawer.
• Detergent is flushed from the dispenser at the
beginning of the cycle Either powdered or liquid
detergent can be used Note: Liquid detergent will
drain into the washer drum as it is added.
• Low sudsing detergent is recommended for this
washer. Use the manufacturer's recommended
amount.
• If low sudsing detergent is not available, a reduced
amount of regular detergent may be used. Because
reducing the amount of detergent may reduce
cleaning, it isimportantto pretreat stains, sort carefully
by color and soil level, and avoid overloading.
• Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water
temperature, water hardness,size and soillevel of the
load.
• For best results, avoid oversudsing.

liquid chlorine bleach (not to exceed 1/3 cup (80 mL))
and pour it into the center compartment labeled
"Liquid Bleach" and marked with this symbolt_.
• Do not exceed the maximum fi!l line. Overfilling can
cause early dispensing of the bleach which could
result in damaged clothes.
• Do not pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly
onto the load or into the drum. Fabric damage can
occur,
• Do not use powdered bleach in the dispenser,
D, FABRIC SOFTENER
• If desired, pour the recommended amount of fabric
softener into the compartment labeled_ "Fabric
Softener" and marked with this symbol b
• Dilute concentrated softeners with warm water to the
Fill Line.
