Starting Your Washer
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to
persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before
operating this appliance.
The following is a guide to starting your washer. Periodic
references to other sections of this manual provide more detailed
information.
1. Place a load of sorted clothes into the washer. See “Laundry
Tips.”
■
Load evenly to maintain washer balance. Mix large and
small items.
■
Load only to the top of the basket as shown. Overloading can
cause poor cleaning. Items should move easily through the
wash water.
2. Pour measured powdered or liquid detergent into the
detergent dispenser. Do not put detergent directly into the
wash tub or onto clothes in the washer.
3. Add color-safe bleach (powdered or liquid) to the detergent
dispenser, if needed. Be sure to match powdered color-safe
bleach with powdered detergent or match liquid color-safe
bleach with liquid detergent.
Fire Hazard
Never place items in the washer that are dampened
with gasoline or other flammable fluids.
No washer can completely remove oil.
Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on
it (including cooking oils).
Doing so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
