oil on it (including cooking oils).
Doing so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

fire, or electrical shock.
1, Sort and prepare your laundry
• Empty pockets. Loose change, buttons, or any small object
can pass under the impeller and become trapped, causing
unexpected sounds.
• Sort items by recommended cycle, water temperature,
and colorfastness.
• Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled.
• Separate delicate items from sturdy fabrics.
• Do not dry garments if stains remain after washing; heat can
set stains into fabric.
• Treat stains promptly.
• Close zippers, fasten hooks, tie strings and sashes.
Remove non-washable trim and ornaments.
• Mend rips and tears to avoid further damage to items
during washing.
Helpful Tips:
• When washing water-proof or water-resistant items, load
evenly. See "Cycle Guide" for tips and more information on
using the Bulky Items cycle.
• Use mesh bags to help prevent tangling when washing
delicate or small items.
• Turn knits inside out to avoid pilling. Separate lint-takers from
lint-givers. Synthetics, knits, and corduroy fabrics will pick up
lint from towels, rugs, and chenille fabrics.
NOTE: Always read and follow fabric care labels instructions
to avoid damage to your garments.

Load garments in loose heaps evenly
around basket wall. Try mixing different
