Detergent and fabric softener may build up in the dispenser
drawer. Remove the drawer and check for buildup once or twice a month.
Proper Use of Detergent
Using too much detergent is a common cause of laundry problems. Today’s detergents are formulated to be effective
without visible sudsing. Be sure to carefully read and follow manufacturer’s recommendations for how much detergent to
use in your wash.
You can use less detergent if you have soft water, a smaller load, or a lightly soiled load.
NOTE:
Use only low-sudsing, highefficiency detergent such as Tide® HE.
