half the total wash load.
Washing single items is not recommended. This may cause an out-of-balance load. Add one or two
similar items.

To avoid snags during washing:
• Close garment zippers, snaps, buttons and hooks.
• Mend seams, hems, tears.

The Fabric Softener Compartment
IMPORTANT: The fabric softener compartment
position varies by model. Be sure to identify
the correct compartment for fabric softener
before using.
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.
