Energy Saving Tips
• Wash full loads. Oversize loads use extra energy.
Undersize loads waste energy.
When small wash loads cannot be avoided, use lower
water levels.
Select the appropriate cycle and time for each load.
Shorten wash times for lightly soiled loads.
To reduce drying time, select a fast spin speed to
remove more water from heavy items such as towels
and jeans.
Usewarm water to wash most loads. Limit hot water
washes to heavily soiled and white loads. Use cold
water for lightly soiled items and rinsing.
• Operate the washer in early morning and late evening
when utility demands are low.
• Follow proper laundry procedures to avoid rewashing.
