Before loading your laundry, be sure to take out coins, keys
and other hard objects, and close all zippers to prevent the
clothes from damage.
Sort laundry by fabric type, soil level, color and load size as needed.
You can fill the tub with dry, unfolded clothes ,but DO NOT OVERLOAD
the tub. Load the tub no more than 3/4 full.
To ensure good cleaning results do not overload the tub, especially when washing
heavily soiled loads. Never load the tub more than 3/4 full.
Overloading may reduce washing efficiency, cause excess wear, and possibly
cause creasing or wrinkling of items in the load.
WARNING: To add a forgotten item:
1. Press the START/PAUSE button to pause the washer.
2. Wait for the tub to stop turning, then open the door.
3. Add the item, close the door, and then press the START/PAUSE button. The cycle
will resume.
Step 3: Add detergent
This washer is designed for high efficiency (HE) detergent only.
Add the recommended amount of detergent directly into the
detergent compartment before starting your washer. The normal
amount of detergent to use is 1/4 to 1/2 of the maximum amount
recommended by the detergent manufacturer. Always reduce the
amount of detergent if the load is small or lightly soiled, or if your
water is very soft . Never use more than the maximum amount
recommended by the detergent manufacturer.
Never pour any liquid bleach directly onto the load. It can cause fabric
damage, such as weakening of cloth fibers or color loss.
