(velveteen, corduroy).

Add detergent and fabric softener before adding items

so that the detergent can work effectively. Using too

little or too much detergent is a common cause of

laundry problems.

Use less detergent if you have soft water, a smaller load

or a lightly soiled load.

For spots, apply pre-treatment to items as recommended

on the product label. Application should be made in

the basket to prevent overspray which may cause the

coloring on the lid or graphics to fade.

Loading the Washer

________

GE recommends the use of High Efficiency (

detergents in all Energy Star rated washers.

HE detergents are formulated to work with low water

wash and rinse systems. HE detergents reduce the

oversudsing problems commonly associated with

regular detergents.

consult the product label to determine amount required

for optimum performance. Excessive detergent will

negatively impact wash performance.

results, load items evenly and loosely around the
