Drop a sorted load of clothes loosely into your washer.
Starting Your Washer
s s s
Load evenly to maintain washer balance. Mix large and small items. Items should move easily through the wash water. Overloading can cause poor cleaning. To reduce wrinkling of permanent press clothes and some synthetic knits, use a higher water level to provide more space (see step 5).
2. (OPTIONAL) Pour measured liquid chlorine bleach into the liquid chlorine bleach dispenser (on some models). Bleach will be dispensed automatically during the wash part of the cycle.
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.
s
Never use more than 1 cup (250 mL) for a full load. Use less with a smaller load size. Follow the manufacturer�s directions for safe use. To avoid spilling, use a cup with a pouring spout. Do not let bleach splash, drip, or run down into the washer basket. Use only liquid chlorine bleach in this dispenser.
