This can help you save money on utility bills and reduce the risk of fabric damage.
USING AIR DRY Using this cycle gives you all the benefits of hang drying with a shorter drying time, Use the AIR DRY Cycle to get up to 20 minutes of drying time in room temperature air. Use this setting for items that will not tolerate heat such as plastics and foam rubber.
END-OF-CYCLE SIGNAL SOFT-HEA'F_ SYSTEM Your dryer sounds a signal when a drying cycle is finished. The signal is helpful when you are drying permanent press, synthetics, and other items. These items should be removed from the dryer as soon as it stops in order to prevent wrinkles.
PREPARING CLOTHES FOR WASHING AND DRYING Follow these recommendations to help save on utility bills and prolong the life of your garments. WASHING AND DRYING TIPS • Close zippers, snaps, and hooks to avoid snagging other items. Remove heat-sensitive trim that can be damaged by drying.
LOADING Proper loading of your laundry center contributes to proper cleaning and fabric care and reduces machine noise. LOADING TIPS - WASHER • Drop items into washer loosely. Fill to the top of the basket (top row of holes). Do not wrap items around the agitator.
LOADING TIPS - DRYER • Mix large items with small items. Load the dryer by the amount of space items take up, not by their weight. Do not overload the dryer. Overcrowding causes uneven drying and wrinkling, and can cause items to wear out faster (because of pilling).
STAIN REMOVAL RULES Stained, heavily-soiled, or greasy items may need to be prewashed or soaked for best results. Soaking helps remove protein-type stains like blood, milk, or grass. Prewashing helps loosen soil before washing. • Use warm water for soaking or pre- washing stained laundry.
Deodorants or antiperspirants Light stain: Treat with liquid detergent or your regular laundry detergent. Wash in hottest water safe for fabric. Heavy stain: Place face down on towel and treat with a paste of ammonia and color*safe bleach. Let stand for 30 minutes.
Mildew Wash in hottest water safe for fabric. If stain remains, soak in warm water and a color-safe bleach for 15 to 30 minutes. Rewash. (Old mildew stains are almost impossible to remove. Mildew fungus destroys or weakens fabrics.) An alter- native to bleach is to treat with salt and lemon juice and dry in direct sunlight.
This section explains how to care for your laundry center properly and safely. Proper care of your laundry center can extend its life and help you avoid costly service calls. CLEANING YOUR WASHER EXTERIOR Wipe up detergent, bleach, and other spills with a soft, damp cloth or sponge as they occur.
