Using the
Liquid Bleach
Dispenser
The bleach dispenser automatically dilutes and
dispenses liquid chlorine bleach at the proper time
in the wash cycle.
1 Check clothing care labels for special instructions.
2 Measure liquid bleach carefully, following instructions
on the bottle.
Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly onto
clothes or into the wash basket.
• Do not pour powdered bleach into bleach dispenser.
• Avoid overfilling or splashing when adding bleach
to the dispenser. The maximum capacity of the bleach
dispenser is one cup of bleach per wash cycle. Overfilling
could result in early dispensing of bleach.
3 Before starting the washer, pour measured amount of
bleach directly into bleach dispenser. If you prefer to
use powdered bleach, add it into the wash basket
directly before adding clothes.
WARNING!
Do not mix chlorine bleach
with ammonia or acids such as vinegar and/or rust remover.
Mixing can produce a toxic gas which may cause death.
The manufacturer’s recommended amount of
undiluted bleach goes into the bleach dispenser. During
the final “Infusor” wash action the bleach is added to
the wash load. This ensures performance won’t be
diminished. Two sequential flushes through the bleach
dispenser completely removes the bleach from the
dispenser. Any residual liquid left in the dispenser at the
end of the cycle is water, not bleach. To prevent self-
siphoning of the bleach into the wash basket and
damage to your clothes, never add more than the
maximum fill level marked on the dispenser.
Also keep clothes away from the bleach dispenser so they
don’t absorb any bleach droplets left around the bleach
dispenser.
Using the
Dispenser
Drawer
The dispenser drawer contains 3 compartments:
Liquid Fabric Softener
Liquid or Powder Low-Sudsing, High-Efficiency
Detergent
Liquid Pretreat Additives
The dispenser automatically dispenses additives at the
proper time in the wash cycle.
1 Slowly open the dispenser drawer by pulling the
drawer out until it stops.
2 After adding laundry products, slowly close the
dispenser drawer. Closing the drawer too quickly
could result in early dispensing of additives.
Avoid overfilling or splashing when adding laundry
products to the dispenser. Doing so could result in
early dispensing of laundry products.
At the end of the cycle, you may see water in the
compartments. This is part of the normal operation of
the washer.
NOTE: Do not use bleach in the dispenser drawer.
