If your clothes and household
items don’t look clean and fresh
after washing, you will probably
rewash them . . . and that means
you’ll
waste energy. Remember

soil has accumulated after
several consecutive washings,
use Hot Wash occasionally, if
safe for fabrics.
Always rinse in cold water. The
temperature of the rinse does not
affect cleaning.
[f
you must wash smaller loads,
adjust the amount of water.
Small loads should have lower
water levels.
● Wash in off-peak utility hours.
Your local utility can tell you
which are the off-peak hours.
● Try to wash less often. Save
articles of the same type of
fabric until you have a full load.
● Use Normal Spin Speed to
remove more water and help
lessen drying time. The dryer
will remove any wrinkles caused
by the Normal Spin Speed.
