er features three different speeds during
the wash cycle. During the Cotton cycle the drum spins at
1,200 or 800 rpm depending on how you set it. During
Permanent Press the drum spins at 850 rpm. During
delicates, the drum spins at 500 rpm. When drying heavy
cotton articles such as bath towels or jeans, be sure the
“Regular” washer setting is selected. The faster spinning
will extract more water from these highly absorbent fabrics
and reduce the degree of dampness as the machine goes
into the drying mode. This will cut down on your drying
time.

Use Liquid Fabric Softener. Fill the softener compartment
up to the level marked. Using fabric softener fluffs out
clothes immediately after the wash cycle. This helps speed
drying time and reduce wrinkles.

This Washer Dryer is a 110 Volt machine, so the heating
element requires more time to achieve full heat than a larger
220 volt unit requires. The heating element will take about
10 minutes to reach full heat.

the Washer Dryer blows heated air
into the rotating drum. As the drum tumbles your laundry,
the warm air dries it. If the drum is overfilled with laundry,
the air is not allowed to circulate and clothes will not dry
properly.
Use Low sudsing Detergent. Use Low sudsing Detergent.
Use Low sudsing Detergent. Use Low sudsing Detergent.
Use Low sudsing Detergent. This is recommended for all
front loading washers. It ensures there is no over sudsing,
which may reduce the performance of your machine. Also,
this prevents damage to your machine which may be caused
by excess suds entering the condensing chamber and
clogging the fan blower mechanism with lint. If you have
any problem obtaining low sudsing detergent, please call
Equator to obtain information on our house brand, Equator
low sudsing detergent. A coupon for a free box of the
Equator detergent is enclosed with the warranty card.
When sorting laundry When sorting laundry
When sorting laundry When sorting laundry
When sorting laundry always take into consideration the
quantity and type of fabric contained in the load. Highly
absorbent fabrics such as those used in towels or jeans
will absorb more water and become very heavy when
saturated. If you notice that your clothes are taking longer
than usual to dry you may be overloading the machine, or
washing too many highly absorbent articles for a single load.
