Using Your Washer

First wash cycle without laundry
Before washing clothes for the first time, if not completed
during the final installation step, choose the QUICK WASH cycle
and run it without clothes. Use only HE detergent. Use ½ the
manufacturer's recommended amount for a medium-size load.
This initial cycle serves to ensure the interior is clean before
washing clothes.
1.
Sort and prepare your laundry
Sort items by recommended cycle, water temperature, and
colorfastness. Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled.
Separate delicate items from sturdy fabrics. Treat stains promptly
and check for colorfastness by testing stain remover products on
an inside seam.
IMPORTANT:
n Empty pockets. Loose change, buttons, or any small object
can plug pumps and may require a service call.
n Close zippers, fasten hooks, tie strings and sashes, and
remove non-washable trim and ornaments.
n Mend rips and tears to avoid further damage to items
during washing.
n Turn knits inside out to prevent pilling. Separate lint-takers
from lint-givers. Synthetics, knits, and corduroy fabrics will
pick up lint from towels, rugs, and chenille fabrics.
n Do not dry garments if stains remain after washing, because
heat can set stains into fabric.
n Always read and follow fabric care labels and laundry
product instructions. Improper usage may cause damage
to your garments.

2.
Add single-dose laundry packet, Oxi,
color-safe bleach, or fabric softener
crystals (if desired)
Single-dose laundry packet, Oxi-type boosters, color-safe
bleach, or fabric softener crystals can be added to the drum
prior to adding laundry.
NOTE: Do not add clothes to washer drum prior to adding
laundry products. Always follow manufacturer's instructions.
3.
Load laundry into washer
Place a load of sorted clothes loosely in the washer. Items need
to move freely for best cleaning and to reduce wrinkling and
tangling. Close the washer door by pushing it firmly until the
latch clicks.
n Depending on load type and cycle, the washer can be fully
loaded, but not tightly packed. Washer door should close
easily. See "Cycle Guide" for loading suggestions.
n Mix large and small items and avoid washing single items.
Load evenly.
n Wash small items in mesh garment bags. For multiple items,
use more than one bag and fill bags equally.
