Sorting Wash Loads
Proper Use of Detergent
Add detergent and start the washer before adding
clothes so that the detergent can work effectively.
Using too little or too much detergent is a common
cause of laundry problems.
You can use less detergent if you have soft water,
a smaller load or a lightly soiled load.
Loading the Washer
Load dry items loosely, no higher than the top
row of holes in the washer basket. When loading
wet items, make sure you set the load/water level
high enough to allow the items to move freely.
Water level should just cover the clothes. To add
items after washer has started, push in Cycle
knob and submerge additional items next to the
agitator. Close the lid and pull Cycle knob out
to restart.
Do not wrap long items like sheets or pants
around the agitator.
Do not wash fabrics containing flammable
materials (waxes, cleaning fluids, etc.).
Agitation will not start with the lid up.
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).
Loading and using the washer.
Always follow fabric manufacturer’s care label when laundering. ge.com
