HOW TO LOAD YOUR
WAS~R
This illustration, with clothes just
reaching the Clothes Retaining
Ring, shows a proper load. Clothes
have ample room to move because
they are not packed down, nor
wrapped around the agitator.
Clothes are loaded dry since wet
items are likely to pack down
which encourages overloading.
This size load requires

water
fill.
What is the best size load of
clothes—large, medium, or

detergent by avoiding extra use of
the washer. Try to wash a full load
of clothes. If you can it is better to
save clothes

you have a
full
load. If you must wash smaller
loads, save water, energy and
detergent by adjusting the water
level for the size of the load. See
Operating Instructions.
