reparation Before Washing P
1. Fabric Care Labels
Look for a care label on your clothes. This will tell you about the fabric content of your
garment and how it should be washed.
2. Sorting
To get the best results, sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle.
Different fabrics need to be washed in different ways.
Always sort dark colors from light colors and whites. Wash separately as dye and lint transfer
can occur causing discoloration of white clothing. If possible, do not wash heavily soiled
items with lightly soiled ones.
Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light) Separate clothes according to amount of soil.
Color (White, Lights, Darks)
Separate white fabrics from colored fabrics.
Lint (Lint Producers, Collectors) Wash lint producers and lint collectors
separately.
3. Check before loading
WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before operating this appliance.
Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items first. Large items should not be more
than half the total wash load.
Do not wash single items. This may cause an out-of-balance load. Add one or two similar items.
• Check all pockets to make sure that they
are empty. Things such as nails, hair
clips, matches, pens, coins and keys can
damage both your washer and your
clothes.
• Secure zippers, hooks, and strings to
make sure that these items don’t snag on
other clothes.
• Pre-treat dirt and stains by brushing a
little detergent dissolved in water onto
stains like collars and cuffs to help shift
dirt.
Do not wash or spin water-proof clothes.

Before the first washing
Select the Normal cycle, add about 1/2 the recommended amount of detergent in the
dispenser, and allow the unit to wash without clothing. This will remove any residue from
the drum that may remain after manufacturing.
Remember to use only HE (High Efficiency) detergent in this machine.
