* Load clothes loosely. Dry clothes
level should be below bottom of
wash tub rim. Do not put clothes
on top of the agitator or wind them
around it. For best results, mix
large items with small ones. When
washing a single heavy item, such
as a shag rug or bedspread, add
one or two other pieces to balance
the load. Large items should be no
more than one-half of the total load.
~ Clean lint filter. Be sure filter is
cleaned before washing every
load. See page 19.
~ Add measured amount of
detergent according to load size,
amount of soil and water level. See
pages 7 through 9 for detailed
information on types and amounts
of detergent.
~ See page 11 for instructions on
how to use bleach, fabric softener
and other laundry products.
@ Close lid. Washer will fill and
agitate but will not spin with lid
open. This washer has a Safety Lid
Lock. As a safety measure the lid
will be automatically locked during
the spin portion of each cycle. The
lid will automatically unlock about
30 seconds after the end of the
spin cycle. To open lid during spin
cycle, push Cycle Selector IN and
wait for lid lock to release, about
30 seconds, before opening.
For your personal safety, never
reach into washer while parts are
moving. Always stop washer to
