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.
Loading Washer Load loose and even, about 2/3 full. Close the door when done loading. Overfilling will result in dirty clothes.
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.
Don’t Oversoap ¼ cup should be all you need, but check the detergent label. Excess soap can damage the machine, leave clothes dirty, and even leave them wet.
