NOTES:
■ Use only HE detergents and follow label instructions.
■ Do not add detergent to the Pre Wash compartment
unless you have selected the Pre Wash option. If you
have detergent in both the Pre Wash and Main Wash
compartments, and have not selected a Pre Wash option,
the washer could oversuds. Suds could spill onto the
floor.
■ If you select the Pre Wash option, use powdered HE
detergent in the Main Wash compartment. If you use
liquid HE detergent in the Main Wash compartment, it will
dispense immediately.
■ Close the detergent drawer securely.
IMPORTANT: To avoid a water spill, do not open the
detergent drawer while the machine is operating.
4. Turn on the washer by selecting POWER.
5. Select one of the cycles by turning the cycle selector. The
preset settings provide the recommended fabric care for the
selected cycle. See “Cycles.”
6. Select the desired options. Not all options are available with
all cycles. See “Cycles.”
7. To begin the wash cycle, select START.
■ When the wash cycle is complete, the DONE status light
glows, the door unlocks, and the wash load can be
removed from the washer. To power down the washer
manually after the wash cycle is complete, press POWER
once.
Using the Dispenser
Your new washer has a dispenser drawer with three separate
compartments for your laundry products—two are for detergent,
and one is for liquid fabric softener. Laundry products are diluted
and dispensed automatically at the proper time during the wash
cycle, making it unnecessary for you to return to the washer
during the cycle to add them.
It is normal for small amounts of water to remain in the
dispensers when the wash cycle is complete.
Do not put laundry additives directly into the wash tub. Always
use the proper dispensers when adding laundry products.
Choosing the Right Detergent
Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package for this type of
detergent will be marked “HE” or “High Efficiency.” This wash
system, along with less water, will create too much sudsing with a
regular non-HE detergent. Using regular detergent will likely result
in washer errors, longer cycle times and reduced rinsing
performance. It may also result in component failures and
noticeable mold or mildew odors. HE detergents are made to
produce the right amount of suds for the best performance.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions to determine the amount
of HE detergent to use.
To fill dispenser compartments
NOTE: Always use the detergent dispenser, and do not put
detergent directly onto clothes in the washer.
1. Pull out the dispenser drawer.
2. Add the desired laundry product to the proper compartment.
3. Push in the dispenser drawer slowly and completely (to avoid
spills).
Pre Wash detergent compartment
(Letter A in Dispenser Illustration)
Add HE detergent to this compartment when using the Pre Wash
option. Liquid or powdered HE detergent may be used in this
compartment. The detergent will automatically be dispensed
during Pre Wash if the Pre Wash option is selected.
■ Using HE detergent, add ¹⁄₃ the recommended amount to the
Pre Wash compartment and ²⁄₃ the recommended amount to
the Main Wash compartment.
IMPORTANT: If you are using the Pre Wash option, powdered HE
detergent must be used in the Main Wash compartment, since
liquid detergents may seep out of the Main Wash compartment
before the main wash begins.
Main Wash detergent compartment
(Letter B in Dispenser Illustration)
Add liquid or powdered HE detergent to this compartment for
your main wash cycle.
IMPORTANT: If you are using the Pre Wash option, powdered HE
detergent must be used in the Main Wash compartment, since
liquid detergents may seep out of the Main Wash compartment
before the main wash begins.
Fabric Softener compartment
(Letter D in Dispenser Illustration)
Add ¼ cup (60 mL) liquid fabric softener to this compartment.
Fabric softener will be automatically dispensed in the final rinse.
■ Do not fill beyond the “MAX” level.
Use only HE High Efficiency detergent.
