Before Washing
Prepare Wash Load
Empty Pockets and Cuffs
Make sure all pockets are empty and turn them inside out. One bob-
by pin, metal or plastic toy, nail or sharp object in a load can catch
laundry, cause tears and plug the pump. Facial tissue left in a pock-
et will produce extreme "lint". A crayon or lipstick in a wash load may
cause stains that cannot be removed. Roll down cuffs and shake
out grass, sand and gravel.
Mend Rips and Tears
Little holes can become bigger in the washer. Mend holes and tears
before placing garments in the washer.
Close Zipper and Fasten Hooks
These can catch on garments in a wash load and tear them. Tie
belts and sashes so they won't wind around clothes.
Check For Colorfastness
Squeeze a portion of garment in warm or hot sudsy water. If the
color bleeds or runs, wash the item separately in cold water.
Sort Items
Different items use different wash cycles and temperatures. Al-
ways follow the manufacturer' s care label.

Proper sorting is easy if you follow a few guidelines:
1. Sort by Color: Separate items into loads of whites, darks, lights
and non-colorfast.
2. Sort by Fabric and Construction: Separate items into loads of
cottons/linens, permanent press, synthetics/blends/poly knits,
and delicates.
3. Sort by Temperature: Separate items into loads that can be
washed in cold, warm or hot water.
4. Sort by Type and Amount of Soil: Heavily soiled clothes will need
extra treatment. Lightly soiled clothes can become dingy if
washed with heavily soiled items.
5. Sort Lint "Shedders" From Lint "Receivers": Some fabrics at-
tract lint and should not be washed with lint-shedding loads.
Lint shedders are cottons, terry towels, chenille bedspreads,
rugs and clothes that have been heavily bleached. Lint receivers
are synthetics, permanent or durable press, knits (including
socks), corduroy, and other smooth fabrics.
Pretreat
Pretreat shirt collars and cuffs with a pretreat product or liquid
detergent when placing them in the washer. Before washing, treat
special stains individually.
Do not wash or dry items soiled with vegetable or
cooking oils. Some oils may remain after washing and
may cause the fabric to catch on fire by itself.

Load Articles
NOTE: Always add detergent first.
•
Load items by the amount of space they take up, not by their
weight. Mix large and small items in a load to get the best wash-
ing results.
