Excessive Lint
Improper Sorting
Fabrics which shed lint cannot be washed with fabrics that
receive lint.
Insufficient Detergent /
Non-phosphate Detergent
Use enough detergent so lint remains suspended in water and
flushed out.
Mixing Fabric Types
Knits and Permanent Press attract lint. Wash these only with
similar items. Use fabric softener in rinse water.
Wrinkling
Improper Sorting
Heavy items like towels should not be washed with light items
like nightgowns.
Too Many Clothes in Washer
Clothes must circulate freely through the water for best
results.
Improper Cycle
Make sure cycle selected is appropriate for type of clothes.
Improper Temperature
Using a warm or cold wash and a cold rinse reduces wrinkling.
