SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS CONT.
The tub can be loaded completely full with dry unfolded
clothes. However, do not pack the tub tightly.
•Overloading may reduce washing efficiency and possibly
cause creasing or wrinkling of the load.
When washing big bulky items or a couple of small items
that do not fill the tub completely, such as a rug or two
sweaters, a few towels should be added for improved
tumbling and spin performance.
When washing heavily soiled loads, it is very important to
avoid overloading the washer to assure good cleaning
results.
•To load a forgotten item, press the start/pause pad, add
the item, close the door and press the start/pause pad.
After a 15 to 30 second pause, the cycle will resume.
For detailed information on sorting, pretreating stains, etc., see the enclosed Laundering Tips booklet.
