• If you wish to use liquid detergent follow guidelines provided by the detergent manufacturer.
• You can pour liquid detergent directly into the main detergent drawer if you are starting the
cycle immediately.
• Please do not use liquid detergent if you are using ‘Time Delay’ as the liquid may harden, or
if you have selected ‘Pre Wash’.
• If too many suds occur, please reduce the detergent amount.
• Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water temperature, water hardness, size and
soil level of the load. For best results, avoid oversudsing.
