clothes for washing Loading

Empty pockets and turn them inside out. Turn down cuffs and brush away lint and dirt. Turn synthetic knits inside out to avoid pilling. Close zippers, snaps and hooks to avoid snagging other items. Remove pins, buckles and other hard objects to avoid scratching the washer interior. Remove unwashable trim and ornaments. Tie strings and sashes so they will not tangle. Mend tears, loose hems and seams. Treat spots and stains. (See page 13 for pretreatment and stain removal information.) Stained or wet garments should be washed promptly for best results.

Sorting
l l

l

Separate dark from light colors, colorfast from non-colorfast. Sort by fabric and construction (sturdy cottons, knits, delicate items). Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled ones even if they would normally be washed together. Separate lint givers (towels, chenille) from lint takers (corduroy, synthetics, permanent press). When possible, turn lint givers inside out.

l

Load washer properly. Overloading or packing can: -cause poor cleaning. -increase wrinkling. -create excessive lint. -wear out items faster (because of pilling). Load by the amount of space items take up, not by their weight. Drop items into washer loosely. Fill to the top of the basket, but do not pack or wrap items around the agitator. Items should move easily through wash water for best cleaning and wrinkle-free results. Watch for rollover. Items should sink and reappear later. Mix large and small items in each load. Load evenly to maintain washer balance. An offbalance load can make the machine vibrate during spin. To reduce wrinkling, permanent press and synthetic knits should have more room to move in the water than heavy items (towels, jeans).
