Operating Tips
Detergent
• Use either liquid or granular laundry detergent. For
best results, be sure detergent is added to the wash-
er BEFORE the load and be sure the wash water is
above 65 ° E
• Use the correct amount of detergent for the load size,
soil level and water conditions. Use more detergent if
you have hard water and very soiled loads.
If you have soft water or a lightly soiled load, use less
detergent. (See manufacturer's instructions.)
• Wipe up any detergent spills on the washer.
Loading
• Put dry, unfolded clothes loosely in the tub, up to the
top row of holes for a maximum load.
• Do not wrap large items like sheets around the agita-
tor.
• Mix large and small items for best circulation. Wash
bulky items like blankets separately.
• When laundering wrinkle free items or items of deli-
cate construction, washable woolens or loosely knit
items, never use less than the MEDIUM water level
setting. This will minimize shrinkage, wrinkling and
pulling of seams.
• For best results, add the detergent to washtub before
adding the load.
• Close lid carefully to avoid slamming.

Additional Tips
• The washer will pause briefly throughout each cycle.
These pauses are normal.
• This washer is designed so that it will not spin or agi-
tate when the lid is open. It will fill with the lid open
so water is available for pretreating stains or diluting
fabric softener.
• If you open the lid during a spin cycle, the washer
will stop. When the lid is closed and the control dial
pulled out, the washer will continue the cycle at the
point it was interrupted.
