WASHER USE
Starting Your Washer
1. Measure detergent and pour it into the washer. If desired, add
powdered or liquid color safe bleach.
2. Drop a sorted load of clothes loosely into your washer.
■
Load evenly to maintain washer balance. Mix large and
small items. Items should move easily through the wash
water.
■
Load only to the top of the basket as shown. Overloading
can cause poor cleaning.
3. (OPTIONAL) Add liquid chlorine bleach.
NOTE: Follow the garment and the chlorine bleach
manufacturers’ directions for proper use. Undiluted bleach will
damage any fabric it touches. The damage appears as rips,
holes, tears, or color loss and may not show up until several
washings later. To avoid spilling, use a cup with a pouring
spout. Do not let bleach splash, drip, or run down into the
washer basket. Always measure liquid chlorine bleach. Do not
guess. Do not use more than the manufacturer’s
recommended amount of liquid chlorine bleach for a full load.
Use less with a smaller load size.
Style 1: With liquid chlorine bleach dispenser (on some
models)
■
Use only liquid chlorine bleach in this dispenser. Do not
use this dispenser to add powdered chlorine or color-safe
bleach to your load. Pour measured liquid chlorine bleach
into the liquid chlorine bleach dispenser. Bleach is
immediately fed into washer and is diluted automatically
during the wash part of the cycle.
Style 2: Without liquid chlorine bleach dispenser (on some
models)
■
Let the washer fill and begin agitating the load.
■
Add bleach 5 minutes into the wash cycle for best
cleaning and so that bleach can be removed in the rinse
cycle. Pour bleach around the agitator, not directly onto
the load to avoid damaging clothing or other items in the
load.

Never place items in the washer that are dampened
with gasoline or other flammable fluids.
No washer can completely remove oil.

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