Too large of a load size will not clean your laundry and might actually break the machine
Washer
-
Do not use too much soap! For a large load – ¼ cup is all that is required.
-
Do not overload your washer!
-
Top load – add clothes a couple inches below the rim, and loosely laid in the tub
-
Front loader - do not stuff clothes; you need to see the back of the wash tub.
-
Water needs room to flow through the clothes
we have to take pump system apart as the machine will no longer drain and function
Dishwasher
-
It is not a garburator (small chopper blade to puree food reside only) rinse and scrape beforehand.
-
No food or garbage to be put inside
-
Clean your filters after every use or every couple uses. Rinse out spray arms if you notice it is not clean enough.
-
Do not use dish soap!
-
Very heavy dishes should be on the lower rack only
This will not give adequate air flow from the freezer to your fridge and ice will build up and the temp will start to rise
Fridge
Do not overload your fridge/freezer or block vents.
Stove
Wipe any spills inside the oven cavity after it has cooled down, this will help with the new aqua clean in the newer machines.
