Top-Load washer
is designed to use either high-efficiency
(HE) detergents or regular detergents
n
ormally used with top-loading washers.
•
For best cleaning results, use a high-efficiency detergent
such as Tide HE,Wisk HE, Cheer HE or Gain HE*.
High-efficiency detergents contain suds suppressors
which reduce or eliminate suds.When less suds are
produced, the load tumbles more efficiently and
cleaning results are maximized.
The detergent dispenser is located under the lid of
the washer. There are two compartments in the
dispenser, one for liquid detergent and liquid
color-safe bleach, and one for powder detergent and
powder color-safe bleach.
The dispenser will automatically dispense the
detergent and color-safe bleach (if used) as the
washer fills.
