Fabric softener dispenser
Fabric softener dispenser is located on
top of agitator. Dispenser automatically
releases liquid fabric softener at proper
time during rinse cycle.
FABRIC SOFTENER TIPS
• Liquid fabric softeners are dispensed
during final rinse. Do not combine with
bleach, bluing, starch, detergents,
soaps, or packaged water conditioners
during rinse.
• Do not mix powdered detergent with
liquid softener in dispenser or softener
will become gummy.
To use dispenser, follow these steps:
1. Pour liquid fabric softener into dis-
penser, using amount recommended
on package.
2. Add water up to fill level, but do not
exceed tip of fill arrow indicator. FAB-
RIC SOFTENER MUST BE DILUT-
ED FOR USE.
•
Do not stop washer during first
spin or dispenser will empty too
soon.
•
Never pour fabric softener
directly onto clothes or spots and
stains may result. To remove
softener stains, soak in soapy
solution of Sard™ Wonder Soap
or Ivory™ soap, or rub stain with
bar of Sard™ or Ivory™ soap
and wash garment as usual.
•
For best softener performance,
set water level to medium or
higher.
3. Clean softener dispenser after
each use. Remove dispenser hous-
ing from agitator by squeezing lower
part of dispenser and pulling up on
housing while tilting slightly to expose
dispenser cup. Rinse dispenser
housing and cup in hot soapy water.
Clean funnel shape in top of agitator and
inside of agitator. Use small brush on hole
and slots in two funnel rings for thorough
cleaning.
After cleaning, reinstall dispenser cup.
Push dispenser housing directly down
onto top of agitator until firmly snapped
together.
To prevent buildup, fill dispenser with
clean water in wash cycles when not
using softener.

NEED MORE TIME?
RESET THE TIMER KNOB.
Although wash cycles are automatic, timer
may be reset to lengthen, shorten, or
repeat a portion of a cycle.
To set or reset timer, push in timer knob to
stop washer. Hold in timer knob firmly
while slowly turning it to desired setting.
Pull out timer knob to start washer.
STOPS AND STARTS
Wash action consists of periods of agita-
tion, with pauses or periods of soaking.
For best results, do not turn timer through
pauses, which are normal part of wash
cycles.
CLEANER CLOTHES
Water temperature affects how clean
clothes become. If your clothes are not as
clean as you would like, check your water
heater temperature. Check your water
heater manufacturer's recommendations,
as well as local codes, for assistance.
Also, check that your water hoses are
hooked up correctly. If they are switched
you might be getting cold water in your
warm and hot cycles.
Hard water does not remove soil as well
as soft water. Check with your local water
company to see if you have hard water. If
you have hard water, try softening it with
a packaged conditioner or use a little
more detergent.
RISERS
Risers or air cushions may be installed if
pipes knock or pound when flow of water
stops. Risers are more efficient when
installed as close as possible to water
supply faucets.
