How should I load my washer to get the best cleaning results?

Do not overload the washer—it can be fully loaded but not tightly packed, and the door should close easily. Mix large and small items, avoid washing single items, and load evenly. Wash small items such as infant socks in mesh garment bags, using more than one bag with equal amounts of material in each. When unloading, check under the gray colored seal at the front of the tub for small items. (Page 11, 18)
