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. 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. • Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Using too much detergent can result in detergent buildup in clothing and the washer. • Liquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be added to the main wash compartment with detergent of the same type. Do not mix liquids and powders • If the dispenser has a liquid detergent cup and insert: - Make sure they are in place when using liquid detergent. - Make sure to remove them when using powdered detergent. Powdered detergent will OPERATION 21 not dispense with the liquid detergent cup and insert in place. • When using powdered detergent, remove the insert and liquid detergent cup from the dispenser. Powdered detergent will not dispense with the liquid detergent cup and insert in place. • 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. Fabric Softener Compartment This compartment holds fabric softener, which is automatically dispensed during the final rinse cycle. Either powdered or liquid fabric softener may be used. • Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Using too much fabric softener may stain clothes or cause buildup on fabrics or in the washer. • Dilute concentrated fabric softeners with warm water. • Never pour fabric softener directly onto the load or into the drum. Pre-wash Detergent Compartment Add liquid or powdered detergent to this compartment when using the Pre-wash option. Always use HE (High-Efficiency) detergent with your washer. • When using the Pre-wash option, liquid detergent for the main wash needs to be loaded in the liquid detergent cup accessory in the main wash dispenser (where applicable), to prevent it from being dispensed with the pre-wash detergent. • The amount of detergent added for the Prewash option is 1/2 the amount recommended for the main wash cycle. For example, if the main wash cycle requires one measure of detergent, add 1/2 measure for the Pre-wash option.
