DETERGENT USE
Your Washer is designed to use high efficiency (HE) detergents.
• For best cleaning results, use a high efficiency detergents such as Tide
HE, Wisk HE, Cheer HE or Gain HE*. High efficiency detergents contain
suds suppressors that reduce or eliminate suds. When fewer suds are
produced, the load tumbles more efficiently and cleaning is maximized.
Regular detergent is not recommended. Please use HE detergents
only.
Reducing the amount of detergent may reduce the quality of cleaning. It is important to pre–treat
stains, sort carefully by color and soil level, and avoid overloading.
