Liquid Bleach Dispenser (on some models)

The dispenser dilutes liquid chlorine bleach before it reaches into your wash load.

Check clothing care labels for special instructions.
Measure liquid bleach carefully, following instructions on the bottle.

■ 

Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly onto clothes or into the wash basket.

■ 

Do not pour powdered bleach into bleach dispenser.

Before starting the washer, pour measured amount of bleach directly into bleach

dispenser. Avoid splashing or over-filling dispenser. If you prefer to use powdered

bleach, add it into the wash basket with your detergent.

■ 

Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or acids such as vinegar and/or rust remover. Mixing can
produce a toxic gas which may cause death.

The Agitator Cap or Fabric Softener Dispenser (depending on model)

The agitator cap 

fits into the top of the

agitator. If it accidentally comes off, simply

put it back on.

The fabric softener dispenser 

automatically

releases liquid fabric softener at the proper

time during the cycle. 

Do not stop the washer during the first
spin. This will cause the dispenser to
empty too soon.

To use, follow these steps:

Make sure dispenser is securely attached

to agitator.
Use only liquid fabric softener. Pour

into dispenser, using amount

recommended on package.

Never pour fabric softener directly on
clothes. It may stain them.

Add water to dispenser until it reaches

the maximum fill line.

Do not pour anything into the agitator if
the agitator cap or dispenser is removed.

Cleaning the Fabric Softener Dispenser (on some models)

Remove the dispenser from the top of the agitator.
Separate the dispenser cup from the cover by grasping the top and pushing down on

the inside of the cup with your fingers. Dispenser cup will pop free from the cover.
To clean the dispenser, soak both the dispenser cup and the dispenser cover in the

following solution:

1 US gallon (3.8 liters) warm water

■ 

1/4 cup (60 ml) heavy duty liquid detergent

1 cup (240 ml) bleach

If necessary, loosen build-up with a clean, soft cloth after soaking. Do not use a stiff

brush; you may roughen the surface of the dispenser.
Rinse and reassemble dispenser. Place dispenser back on the agitator.
