Pre-Wash Detergent Compartment
Add liquid or powdered detergent to this compartment
when using the Pre-Wash option. Always use HE (High-
Efficiency) detergent with your washing machine.
NOTE
y When using the pre-wash option, if liquid
detergent is to be used for the main wash, the
liquid detergent cup accessory must be used in
the main wash dispenser, to prevent the main
wash liquid detergent from being dispensed
immediately.
y The amount of detergent added for the Pre-
Wash option is 1⁄2 the amount recommended
for the main wash cycle. For example, if the
main wash cycle requires one measure of
detergent, add 1⁄2 measure for the Pre-Wash
option.
Main Wash Detergent Compartment
This compartment holds laundry detergent for the
main wash cycle, which is added to the load at
the beginning of the cycle. Always use HE (High-
Efficiency) detergent with your washing machine.
Never exceed the manufacturer's recommendations
when adding detergent. Using too much detergent
can result in detergent buildup on clothing and the
washer. Either powdered or liquid detergent may be
used.
NOTE
Liquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be
y
added to the main wash compartment with
detergent of the same type.
When using liquid detergent, make sure the liquid
y
detergent cup and insert are in place. Do not
exceed the maximum fill line.
When using powdered detergent, remove
y
the insert and liquid detergent cup from the
compartment. Powdered detergent will not
dispense with the liquid detergent cup and insert
in place.
Liquid Bleach Compartment
This compartment holds liquid chlorine bleach, which
will be dispensed automatically at the proper time
during the wash cycle.
NOTE
Do not add powdered or liquid color-safe bleach to
y
this compartment.
Always follow the manufacturer's
y
recommendations when adding bleach. Do not
exceed the maximum fill line. Using too much
bleach can damage fabrics.
Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach
y
directly onto the load or into the drum. Fabric
damage can occur.
Fabric Softener Compartment
This compartment holds liquid fabric softener, which
will be automatically dispensed during the final rinse
cycle.
NOTE
Always follow the manufacturer's
y
recommendations when adding fabric softener. Do
not exceed the maximum fill line. Using too much
fabric softener may result in stained clothes.
