LAUNDRY TIPS
Preparing clothes for washing
Follow these recommendations to help you prolong the life of your
garments.
Use only High Efciency detergents. The package for this type
of detergent will be marked “HE” or “High Efciency.” This
wash system, along with less water, will create too much
sudsing with a regular non-HE detergent. Using regular
detergent will likely result in washer errors, longer cycle times,
and reduced rinsing performance. It may also result in
component failures and noticeable mold or mildew. HE
detergents are made to produce the right amount of suds for
the best performance. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions
to determine the amount of detergent to use. Remember,
concentrated detergents such as 2x or higher will use less
detergent based on load size.
Use only HE High Efciency detergent.
Close zippers, snaps, and hooks to avoid snagging other
items. Tie strings and sashes to avoid tangles.
Remove pins, buckles, and other hard objects to avoid
scratching the washer interior. Remove non-washable trim
and ornaments.
Empty pockets and turn them inside out; turn down cuffs.
Turn wool and synthetic knits inside out to avoid pilling.
Brush away lint and dirt. Treat spots and stains, stained or wet
garments should be washed promptly for best results.
Mend tears, loose hems, and seams.
Sorting
Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled ones, even if
they would normally be washed together. Separate lint-givers
(towels, chenille) from lint-takers (corduroy, synthetics,
permanent press). When possible, turn lint-givers inside out.
Separate dark colors from light colors, colorfast items from
noncolorfast items.
Sort by fabric and construction (sturdy cottons, knits, delicate
items).
When washing waterproof/water-resistant items, such as
plastic-lined mattress pads, shower curtains, tarpaulins,
jackets or sleeping bags, use one of the following cycles:
Delicate/Handwash, Colors/Towels,
or Whitest Whites.
