Weare all consciousof the need
to saveenergy—toprotect our
country’senergyreservesand to
help us savemoney.There are
severalthingsyou can do to reduce
the amount of energyneededto
wash your clothes:
1, UseHot Wash—140°(60°C)—
on a regularbasisonlywhen
washingheavilysoiled
articles-such as work and play
clothes.
2. Under normal soilconditions,
wash in water above80°1?(27°C).
This generallymeansusingthe
Warm Washtemperature setting
on your washer—temperatures
approximately95°F(35‘C). If you
noticethat soilhas accumulated
after severalconsecutivewashings,
use Hot Wash occasionally,if safe
for fabrics.
3. Try to wash lessoften. Save
articlesof the sametype of fabric
until you havea fullload.
4. If you must wash smallerloads,
adjust the amount of water. Small
loads should havelowerwater
levels.
5. Wash in off-peak utilityhours.
Yourlocalutilitycan tell you
whichare the off-peak hours.
6. Use your washer’sNormal
SpeedSpin. Youcan saveenergy
on the Gentle Cycleby switching
from GentleSpin to Regular
Cycle/Normal SpeedSpin. This
willremovemore water during
spin, whichwillshorten drying

dryingwillremoveany wrinkles
whichmay result from the Normal
Spin.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If your
clothesand householditemsdon’t
look cleanand fresh after washing,
what are you apt to do? Youwill
probably then re-washthem ...
and that meansyou’llwaste
energy.Rememberto sort your
clothescarefully,and load them
properly,selectcorrect cycles,use
enough detergentand choosea
watertemperaturewarm enough
