CAUTION • Do not place or store laundry products, such as detergent, bleach, or liquid fabric softener, on top of your washer. These products can damage the washer's finish and controls. NOTE • The manual dispenser cannot be used for pre- wash detergent dispensing. Manual Main Wash Detergent Compartment This compartment holds laundry detergent for the main wash cycle. Either powdered or liquid detergent may be used in this compartment. • The detergent is added to the load at the beginning of the cycle. Always use HE (HighEfficiency) detergent with your washer. • Liquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be added to the manual main wash compartment with detergent of the same type. Do not mix liquids and powders • If you use a detergent that does not dissolve easily or a detergent with high viscosity, it will leave a residue and clog the dispenser. Liquid Bleach Compartment This compartment holds liquid bleach, which is dispensed automatically at the proper time during the wash cycle. The dispenser is activated twice to ensure complete dispensing of the bleach. Any liquid remaining in the dispenser at the end of the cycle is water, not bleach. WARNING • Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or acids such as vinegar or rust/scale remover. Mixing chemicals like these can produce a lethal gas, resulting in severe injury or death. NOTE • Do not add powdered bleach to this compartment. The bleach compartment is designed to dispense liquid chlorine bleach only. Powdered or liquid color-safe bleach will not dispense properly. • Follow the manufacturer's recommendations when adding bleach. Never add more than one cup, and do not exceed the maximum fill line or the bleach may be dispensed immediately and damage fabrics. Using too much bleach can also damage fabrics. • Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly onto the load or into the drum. Fabric damage can occur. • Do not use color-safe bleach or oxygen bleach in the same cycle with liquid chlorine bleach.
