Using the Dispenser

Add liquid or powdered HE detergent
to this compartment.
Color-safe bleach or oxi products may
be added to this compartment along
with the same type of detergents.
NOTE: Do not mix powdered products
with liquid ones.
Do not overfill; adding too much
detergent may cause detergent to be
dispensed into the washer too early.
Use only High
Efficiency (HE)
detergent.
To use the dispenser drawer:
1.
Open the dispenser drawer.
2. Add laundry products as described in steps 3–5.

from the previous wash cycle. This is normal.

bleach compartment. Do not overfill, dilute, or use more than
2/3 cup (165 mL). Use a measuring cup with a pour spout; do
not guess.
n
Do not fill beyond the “MAX” level. Overfilling will cause
bleach to dispense too soon and may cause garment
damage.

Do not add color-safe bleach or oxi-product to this
dispenser.
5.
Add liquid chlorine bleach
to dispenser (if desired)
Pour a measured amount of liquid fabric softener into liquid
fabric softener compartment. Always follow manufacturer’s
directions for correct amount of fabric softener based on your
load size.
Fabric softener is always dispensed in the final rinse.

(60 mL) of fabric softener. Do not fill past the MAX line.

dispense into washer.

Do not use liquid fabric softener dispenser balls in this
washer. They will not dispense correctly.
