The Dispenser Drawer
Slowly open the dispenser drawer by pulling it
out until it stops.
After adding laundry products, slowly close the
dispenser drawer. Closing the drawer too quickly
could result in early dispensing of the bleach,
fabric softener or detergent.
You may see water in the bleach and fabric softener
compartments at the end of the cycle. This is a result
of the flushing/siphoning action and is part of the
normal operation of the washer.
The Liquid Bleach Compartment
If desired, measure out the recommended
amount of liquid bleach, not to exceed
1/3 cup (80 ml) and pour into the
compartment labeled “LIQUID BLEACH”
marked with this symbol .
Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling can
cause early dispensing of the bleach which could result
in damaged clothes.
NOTE: Do not use powdered bleach in the dispenser.
The Fabric Softener Compartment
If desired, pour the recommended amount of
liquid fabric softener into the compartment
labeled “FABRIC SOFTENER.”
Use only liquid fabric softener in the
dispenser.
Dilute with water to the maximum fill line.
Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling can
cause early dispensing of the fabric softener which
could stain clothes.
NOTE: Do not pour fabric softener directly on
the wash load.
The Detergent Compartment
High efficiency detergent is
recommended for this washer. Use the
detergent manufacturer’s recommended
amount.
The detergent selection insert must be placed
in the detergent compartment in a specific
position according to what type of detergent
you are using.
Powder Detergent – Place the insert in the
rear position. The Powder Icons must
line up on center when the insert is in the
powder position.
Liquid Detergent – Place the insert in the
forward position. The Liquid Icons
must line up on center when the insert is
in the liquid position.
Move the insert by pulling it up and replace
it by sliding it down between either the rear
or front detergent compartment molded rails,
as desired, for powder or liquid detergent.
Add measured detergent to the front left
detergent compartment of the dispenser
drawer.
Detergent is flushed from the
dispenser at the beginning of the
wash cycle. Either powdered or liquid
detergent can be used.
Detergent usage may need to be adjusted
for water temperature, water hardness,
size and soil level of the load. Avoid using
too much detergent in your washer as it
can lead to oversudsing and detergent
residue being left on the clothes.
Insert in rear position for powder detergent
Insert in forward position for liquid detergent
