WARNING

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.

Sort and prepare your laundry

Empty pockets. Loose change, buttons, or any small object can pass under the agitator and become trapped, causing unexpected sounds.
Sort items by recommended cycle, water temperature, and colorfastness.
Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled.
Separate delicate items from sturdy fabrics.
Do not dry items if stains remain after washing, because heat can set stains into fabric.
Treat stains promptly.
Close zippers, fasten hooks, tie strings and sashes, and remove non-washable trim and ornaments.
Mend rips and tears to avoid further damage to items during washing.

Helpful Tips:

Use mesh garment bags to help avoid tangling when washing delicate or small items.
Turn knits inside out to avoid pilling. Separate lint-takers from lint-givers. Synthetics, knits, and corduroy fabrics will pick up lint from towels, rugs, and chenille fabrics.

NOTES :

Always read and follow fabric care label instructions to avoid damage to your garments.
The washer will not start or fill with the lid open.
