CCS rear wheel - washers

I got a flat and had to remove the rear wheel. I replaced it and thought all was fine after a test ride, but afterwards I found one of the slotted washers on the floor of my garage. It's one of the wheels that ensures the wheel doesn't spin in the dropouts. Obviously it should go on the bike. I'm thinking for now as long as I use Eco and maybe level 1 that it shouldn't be an issue, but I would like to take the wheel off again and assemble it properly.

Does anyone have pictures or a video of how the washers go on the axle I.e. where they go and in what order.

Thanks
 
Yes, the wheel axle is slotted but I guess it's just a little extra insurance at higher power levels.

I would like to get the washers back in there properly, but as I use Eco and level 1 about 98% of the time I'm not going to worry about it. But I figure I will need to change the cassette in another 2,000 km's or so. At that time I'd like to get the washers back in there properly.
