– We recommend HE (High Efficiency) detergents because they 

are particularly designed to deliver optimum performance 
from your front-loading washer. Not using HE detergent could 
cause problems such as oversudsing, extended cycle 
periods, or a decrease in wash performance.

– Utilize the maximum amount of laundry for the appropriate cycle.
– Avoid using too much detergent.
– Add detergent according to manufacturer's instruction and water 

hardness.

– If the laundry will be dried in a dryer afterwards, select spin 

speed according to the dryer manufacturer’s instructions.
