Before moving the laundry center,
place a strip of cardboard or thin
fiberboard under the front leveling legs to prevent floor damage.
Tinting
If tints and dyes are used in the washer, some washer parts, such as the agitator and
tub, will take on the colour of the dye. The colour will not harm the parts andwill
not transfer to future loads if the washer is cleaned as directed.
After tinting, wipe any splashings from the cabinet and lid. Then run the washer
through a hot cycle using detergent and bleach.
When using tints or dyes, always follow the package instructions. Be sure that items
to be dyed are machine washable. Please note the tinted clothes
will not be
colourfast
and should be washed seperately to avoid transferring colour to other
garments.
