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 is not recommended. This may cause an out-of-balance load. Add one or two
similar items.
Pillows and comforters should not be mixed with other items. This may cause an out-of-balance load.
Sort dark-colored clothes from Iighbcolored clothes to prevent dye transfer. This is a high-efficiency
washer, so it uses less water, making dye transfer more common.
