HOW TO LOAD YOUR WASHER
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 a
full
water
fill.
What
is the best size load of
clothes—large, medium, or
small? Save time, energy and
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
until
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 section.
