Detergent type
Your washer requires low sudsing detergent to prevent oversudsing problems. Low
sudsing detergent comes in powder, liquid or pod form and is labelled ‘Front Loading’,
‘Low Suds’, ‘High Efficiency’ or ‘HE’.
Using top loading detergent in your front loader washer may lead to excessive suds
formation, which will lengthen the cycle time as the machine waits for the suds to
dissolve.
Where do I put my detergent?
Powdered or liquid detergent is added to the main wash detergent compartment on
the left side of the dispensing drawer marked with a ‘2’. As the machine fills, water is
flushed through this compartment to deliver a detergent solution into the drum.
Pods – Detergent pods are a ‘no mess’ alternative to powdered or liquid detergent.
They must be placed at the back of the drum prior to loading your clothes. This will
ensure they are activated quickly in the wash. Do not place pods in the detergent
dispenser drawer.
If you wish to use the ‘Pre Wash’ option, liquid or powdered detergent only must be
placed in the prewash detergent compartment on the right side of the drawer, marked
with a ‘1’. When you select ‘Pre Wash’, the pre wash compartment is flushed at the start
of the cycle.

ImpORTANT!
If you select the ‘Pre Wash’ you cannot use liquid detergent in the main wash
detergent compartment. You must use powdered detergent for the main wash.
Make sure the detergent dispenser draw is completely closed before starting the cycle.
If using ‘Delay Start’ we recommend you use powdered detergent for the main wash.
