12 OPERATION-WASHER Small Items • Do not wash a single small item. Add enough similar items to the load to prevent an out-ofbalance load. • Wash small, light items in a mesh bag. Small items can get caught in the impeller at the bottom of the drum, and brassiere hooks can snag on other clothing or the drum. Adding Cleaning Products About Detergent Use This washer is designed for use with only HE (HighEfficiency) detergents. • HE detergents produce fewer suds, dissolve more efficiently to improve washing and rinsing performance, and help to keep the interior of the washer clean. Using detergent that is not HE may cause oversudsing and unsatisfactory performance which could result in error codes, cycle failure, and washer damage. • Detergents designated as HE-compatible may not provide optimal results. • For proper wash performance, always measure detergent using the measuring device provided by the detergent manufacturer. For an average load, use less than half of the recommended maximum. Use less detergent for soft water, light soil, or smaller loads. • Use extra care when measuring 2X and 3X concentrated detergents because even a small amount of extra detergent can lead to problems. • Never use more than the maximum amount of detergent recommended by the manufacturer. Using too much detergent can lead to oversudsing, poor rinsing, detergent buildup in clothing, and residue buildup that can contribute to odors in the washer. a Maximum fill line b Average load fill line c Liquid detergent d Powdered detergent Single-Use Detergent Packs / Gel or Tablet Detergents • Do not use more than one single-use detergent pack in the washer.

About Detergent Use
This washer is designed for use with only HE (High-
Efficiency) detergents.
•
HE detergents produce fewer suds, dissolve
more efficiently to improve washing and rinsing
performance, and help to keep the interior of
the washer clean. Using detergent that is not HE
may cause oversudsing and unsatisfactory
performance which could result in error codes,
cycle failure, and washer damage.
•
Detergents designated as HE-compatible may
not provide optimal results.
•
For proper wash performance, always measure
detergent using the measuring device provided
by the detergent manufacturer. For an average
load, use less than half of the recommended
maximum. Use less detergent for soft water,
light soil, or smaller loads.
•
Use extra care when measuring 2X and 3X
concentrated detergents because even a small
amount of extra detergent can lead to problems.
•
Never use more than the maximum amount of
detergent recommended by the manufacturer.
Using too much detergent can lead to
oversudsing, poor rinsing, detergent buildup in
clothing, and residue buildup that can contribute
to odors in the washer.
