Select Temperature and/or Material Settings Check clothing and detergent labels. Many modern detergents work best in cold water. Reserve hot water use for whites and dirty linens.
Loading Washer Load loose and even, about 2/3 full. Close the door when done loading. Overfilling will result in dirty clothes.
Adding Detergent Avoid over soaping. ¼ cup of liquid detergent is usually all you need, but check packaging. If using a pod, place in drum NOT the dispenser, and load before adding clothing.
