WARNING
Fire Hazard
Never place items in the washer that are dampened
with gasoline or other flammable fluids.
No washer can completely remove oil.
Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on
it (including cooking oils).
Doing so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
1. Measure detergent and pour it into the washer. If desired, add
powdered or liquid color safe bleach. Drop a sorted load of
clothes loosely into your washer.
Load evenly to maintain washer balance. Mix large and
small items. Items should move easily through the wash
water. Overloading can cause poor cleaning.
2. (OPTIONAL) Add Liquid Chlorine Bleach.
Always measure liquid chlorine bleach. Do not guess. Never
use more than 1 cup (250 mL) for a full load. Follow
manufacturer's directions for safe use. Use a cup with a
pouring spout to avoid spilling.

Starting Your Washer

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
Let the washer fill and begin agitating the load. Add bleach to
the wash cycle so it can be removed in the rinse cycle. Pour
bleach around the agitator, not directly onto the load.
NOTE: Undiluted bleach will damage any fabric it touches.
The damage appears as rips, holes, tears, or color loss and
may not show up until several washings later.
