About washer features.
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.

Cleaning the Fabric Softener Dispenser
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.

Liquid Bleach Dispenser
The dispenser dilutes liquid chlorine bleach before it reaches 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.
