Factory-authorized repairmen are very expensive. Place clothes loosely in the washer. Do not fill the washing machine with clothes up to the rim or mash down the clothes to get them all in. Do not try to save time, water, or energy by overloading the machines. The cost of repairs far exceeds any possible savings.
Dryers also break down due to overloading.
Only dry one load of clothes at a time. These items should be taken to a laundromat with machines big enough to accommodate them. Do not put dye or tint in the washing machine. Remove the lint from the dryer's lint filter before each load. Please be considerate of other people who use the washer and dryer.
