1.
Sort and prepare your laundry
3.
Load laundry into washer
Load garments in loose heaps evenly
around the washplate. Do not load
garments directly over the center of the
washplate; when loaded, the center of the
washplate should be visible. Try mixing
different sized garments to reduce tangling.
IMPORTANT: Garments need to move freely for best cleaning
and to reduce wrinkling and tangling.
2.
Add single-dose laundry packet,
Oxi, color-safe bleach, and/or fabric
softener crystals (if desired)
Single-dose laundry packet, color-safe bleach, Oxi-type boosters,
or fabric softener crystals can be added to the basket prior to
adding laundry.
NOTE: Do not add clothes to washer basket prior to adding
laundry products. Always follow manufacturer’s instructions.
