• Put dry, unfolded clothes loosely in the tub, up to the MAX.
LOAD line for a maximum load. Do not pack down the
load.
• Overloading may reduce washing efficiency, cause excess
wear and possibly cause creasing or wrinkling of the load.
• Wash delicate items such as bras, hosiery and other lingerie
in the Delicates or Hand Wash cycle with similar lightweight
items.
• Do not overload the washer when washing large, bulky
items such as comforters, blankets or mattress pads.
Loosely load bulky items no higher than the
MAX. LOAD line in the washer tub. Overloading may
reduce washer efficiency and could damage items. Use the
Bulky Items cycle for these loads.

NSTRUCTIONS
• The Bulky Items cycle is tailored to extract the proper
amount of water to thoroughly clean bulky items. Selecting
any other cycle may not effectively clean such items.The
Bulky Items cycle can be accessed by touching the Bulky
Items cycle pad.
• When washing smaller, bulky items that do not fill the tub
completely such as a rug, one pillow, stuffed toys or one or
two sweaters, a few towels should be added for improved
tumbling and spin performance.
• When washing heavily soiled loads, it is very important to
avoid overloading the washer to assure good cleaning results.
• To add a forgotten item, press the Start/Pause pad, wait
for the Locked light to go out, add the item, close the lid and
press the Start/Pause pad. After a pause of up to one
minute, the cycle will resume.
• Close lid carefully to avoid slamming.
NOTE: To assure that your additional items get clean, do
not wait more than five minutes after the cycle has started
to add the item.
