Always follow fabric manufacturer's care label when laundering.
Sorting Wash Loads
Sort by color (whites, lights, colors), soil level, fabric type (sturdy cottons, easy care, delicates) and whether the
fabric produces lint (terry cloth, chenille) or collects lint (velveteen, corduroy). Wash lint producers such as cotton
towels and socks separate from lint collectors including synthetic garments and dress pants.
WARNING
DO NOT wash fabrics soiled with flammable liquids or cleaning solvents.
No washer can completely remove oil.
DO NOT wash or dry anything that has been soaked in or spotted with any type of oil (including cooking oils).
DO NOT reach into the washer until all moving parts have stopped.
Doing so can result in death, explosion, fire or amputation.
Loading the Washer
The wash drum may be fully loaded with loosely added items.
To add items after the washer has started, press Start/Pause and wait until the door is unlatched. The washer may
take up to 30 seconds to unlock the door after pressing Start/Pause, depending on the machine conditions. Do not
try to force open the door when it is locked. After the door unlocks, open gently. Add items, close the door and press
Start/Pause to restart.
