Is there above average iron (rust) in water?
You may need to install an iron filter.

To avoid dye transfer, unload the washer as soon as it stops.
Load is wrinkled

Did you use the right cycle for the load being washed?
Use the Casual/Permanent Press cycle or a cycle with low
spin speeds (if available) to reduce wrinkling.
Did you overload the washer?
The wash load must be balanced and not overloaded. Loads
should move freely during washing.
Was the wash water warm enough to relax wrinkles, or
are you using warm rinses?
If safe for the load, use warm or hot wash water. Use cold
rinse water.

to the right taps. See the Installation Instructions.

Use hot or warm washes if safe for the load. Hot water should
be at least 44°C (111°F) to clean heavy soils.

water?
Use more detergent for washing heavy soils in cold or hard
water.
Are the hot and cold water hoses reversed?

Garment damage

threads in seams before washing.
