HE detergent.
Not using correct cycle for fabric type.
Not using dispensers.
Not washing like colors together.
Clogged dispenser.
Fabric Softener knob not set to "Yes".

cycle.
Strings and straps could have tangled.
Items may have been damaged
before washing.
Fabric damage can occur if load is tightly
packed.
Liquid chlorine bleach may have been
added incorrectly.
Garment care instructions may not have
been followed.
Washer senses load size and adds correct amount of water.
This is normal and necessary for clothes to move. It is normal
for the wash load to be not completely covered in water.
Added water results in less effective cleaning.
Washer is less efficient at cleaning when load is tightly packed.
Load garments in loose heaps evenly around the basket wall.
Load with dry items only.
Add only 1 or 2 additional garments after washer has started.
Add detergent, oxi products, and color-safe bleach to the
bottom of the basket before adding the load items.
The suds from regular detergent can keep washer from operating cor-
rectly.
Use only HE detergent. Be sure to measure correctly.
Always measure detergent and follow manufacturer's directions based on
load size and soil level.
Use a higher soil level cycle option and warmer wash temp
to improve cleaning.
Use Heavy Duty cycle for tough cleaning. See the "Cycle Guide" to
match your load with the best cycle.
Use dispensers to avoid chlorine bleach and fabric softener
staining.
Load dispensers before starting a cycle.
Avoid overfilling.
Do not add products directly onto load.
Wash like colors together and remove promptly after the cycle
is complete to avoid dye transfer.
Load dispensers before starting a cycle.
Use only liquid chlorine bleach in the bleach dispenser. Use only fabric
softener in the fabric softener dispenser.
Set Fabric Softener knob to "Yes" when using fabric softener dispenser.
Empty pockets, zip zippers, and snap or hook fasteners before washing to
avoid snags and tears.
Tie all strings and straps before starting wash load.
Mend rips and broken threads in seams before washing.
Load garments in loose heaps evenly around the basket wall.
Load with dry items only.
Use cycle designed for the fabrics being washed.
Use Bulky/Bedding or Jeans/Towels cycle for higher water fill, or
set Water Level knob to Deep Fill setting. See "What's New Under the
Lid" and "Cycle Guide" to match your load with the best cycle.
Add only 1 or 2 additional garments after washer has started.
Do not pour liquid chlorine bleach directly onto load. Wipe up bleach
spills.
Undiluted bleach will damage fabrics. Do not use more than
recommended by manufacturer.

unloading washer.
Always read and follow garment manufacturer's care label
instructions. See the "Cycle Guide" to match your load with the
best cycle.
