• Did you use enough detergent, or do you
have hard water? Use more detergent for
washing heavy soils in cold or hard water.
• Are the hot and cold water hoses re-
versed? Check that the hot and cold water
hoses are connected to the right faucets. See
"Connect the Inlet Hoses," page 2-7.
GARMENTS DAMAGED
• Check the following:
Were sharp items removed from pockets
before washing? Empty pockets, zip zippers,
snap or hook fasteners before washing.
Were strings and sashes tied to avoid
tangling?
Were items damaged before washing? Mend
rips and broken threads in seams before
washing.
• Did you overload the washer? The wash
load must be balanced and not overloaded.
Loads should move freely during washing.
• Did you add chlorine bleach properly? Do
not pour chlorine bleach directly onto load.
Wipe up bleach spills. Undiluted bleach will
damage fabrics. Do not place load items on
top of the bleach dispenser when loading and
unloading the washer (on some models).
• Did you follow the manufacturer's care
label instructions?
