HOW TO USE

ABOUT THE DISPENSERS

The automatic dispenser consists of two compartments
which hold:
• Liquid fabric softener.
• Liquid or powdered detergent for main wash.
Dispenser Drawer
Main Wash Detergent Compartment
This compartment holds laundry detergent for the main
wash cycle. The detergent is added to the load at the
beginning of the cycle. Always use High-Efficiency (HE)
detergent with your washing machine. Either powdered
or liquid detergent may be used.
Never exceed the manufacturer's recommendations
when adding detergent. Using too much detergent can
result in detergent buildup in clothing and the washer.
When using liquid detergent, make sure the liquid
detergent cup and insert are in place. Do not exceed
the maximum fill line.
When using powdered detergent, remove the liquid
detergent cup from the compartment. Powdered
detergent will not dispense with the liquid detergent cup
in place.

Fabric Softener Compartment

This compartment holds liquid fabric softener, which is
automatically dispensed during the final rinse cycle.
Never exceed the manufacturer's recommendations when
adding softener. Using too much fabric softener can result
in buildup in clothing and the washer.
• Always follow the manufacturer's recommendations
when adding fabric softener. Do not exceed the
maximum fill line. Using too much fabric softener may
stain clothes.
• Dilute concentrated fabric softeners with warm water.
Do not exceed the maximum fill line.
• Never pour fabric softener directly onto the load or
into the tub.

Liquid Bleach Compartment

The bleach dispenser is a separate compartment at the
left front of the tub opening. This compartment holds
liquid bleach, which is dispensed automatically at the
proper time during the wash cycle. The dispenser is
activated twice to ensure complete dispensing of the
bleach. Any liquid remaining in the dispenser at the end
of the cycle is water, not bleach.
• Do not add powdered bleach to this compartment.
The bleach compartment is designed to dispense liquid
bleach only. Powdered bleach will not dispense properly.
• Always follow the manufacturer's recommendations
when adding bleach. Never add more than one cup
and do not exceed the maximum fill line since this can
cause the bleach to be dispensed immediately, resulting in
damage to fabrics. Using too much bleach can damage
fabrics.
• Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly
onto the load or into the tub. Fabric damage can occur.
• Do not use color-safe bleach or Oxi products in the same
cycle with liquid chlorine bleach.
Do NOT mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or
acids, such as vinegar or rust/scale remover.
Mixing chemicals like these can produce a lethal
gas, resulting in severe injury or death.
