LID INSTRUCTIONS
These instructions are found under the lid of your washer.
Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package for this type of
detergent will be marked “HE” or “High Efficiency.” The new wash
action of the CALYPSO
®
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,
reduced rinsing performance, and may result in component
failures and noticeable mold or mildew. HE detergents such as
TIDE
®
HE are made to produce the right amount of suds for the
best performance. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to
determine the amount of detergent to use.
