Always follow fabric manufacturer's care label when laundering.
Sorting and Loading
Sort by color (whites, lights, colors), soil level, fabric type (sturdy cottons, easy care, delicates) and whether the
fabric produces lint (terry cloth, chenille) or collects lint (velveteen, corduroy). Wash lint producers such as cotton
towels and socks separate from lint collectors including synthetic garments and dress pants.
WARNING
DO NOT wash fabrics soiled with flammable liquids or cleaning solvents.
No washer can completely remove oil.
DO NOT wash or dry anything that has been soaked in or spotted with any type of oil (including cooking oils).
DO NOT reach into the unit until all moving parts have stopped.
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from the unit.
Items containing foam, rubber, or plastic must be dried on a clothesline.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, fire or amputation.
Loading to Wash
The drum may be fully loaded with loosely added items.

Loading to Dry
As a general rule, if clothes are sorted properly for the wash, they are sorted properly for the dry cycle. Try also to
sort items according to size. For example, do not dry a sheet with socks or other small items.
Do not add fabric softener sheets once the load has become warm. They may cause fabric softener stains. Bounce
Fabric Conditioner Dryer Sheets have been approved for use in this unit when used in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
Do not overload. This wastes energy and causes wrinkling.
