CHOOSING THE RIGHT DETERGENT Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package will be marked "HE" or "High Efficiency." Low-water washing creates excessive sudsing with a non-HE detergent. Using non-HE detergent will likely result in longer cycle times and reduced rinsing performance. It may also result in component failure and, over time, buildup of mold or mildew. HE detergents should be low-sudsing and quick-dispersing to produce the right amount of suds for the best performance. They should hold soil in suspension so it is not redeposited onto clean clothes. Not all detergents labeled as High Efficiency are identical in formulation and their ability to reduce suds. For example, natural, organic, or homemade HE detergents may generate a high level of suds. If you use one of these and see an "Sd" or "Sud" error code appear in the display, consider using a different HE detergent. Always follow the detergent manufacturer's instructions to determine the amount of detergent to use. Do not go over the Max line on the dispenser. About Detergent Dosing If you do not get your desired cleaning results, try using a larger amount of detergent. If you have excess suds, try using less detergent. NOTES: ■■A small amount of water may remain in the dispensers from the previous wash cycle. This is normal. ■■To add single-dose and Oxi-type boosters, see the "Using Your Washer" section. Use only High Efficiency (HE) detergent. 34

CHOOSING THE RIGHT DETERGENT
Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package will be
marked “HE” or “High Efficiency.” Low-water washing creates
excessive sudsing with a non-HE detergent. Using non-HE
detergent will likely result in longer cycle times and reduced
rinsing performance. It may also result in component failure and,
over time, buildup of mold or mildew. HE detergents should be
low-sudsing and quick-dispersing to produce the right amount
of suds for the best performance. They should hold soil in
suspension so it is not redeposited onto clean clothes. Not all
detergents labeled as High Efficiency are identical in formulation
and their ability to reduce suds. For example, natural, organic,
or homemade HE detergents may generate a high level of suds.
If you use one of these and see an “Sd” or “Sud” error code
appear in the display, consider using a different HE detergent.
Always follow the detergent manufacturer’s instructions to
determine the amount of detergent to use. Do not go over the
Max line on the dispenser.
Use only High Efficiency
(HE) detergent.
About Detergent Dosing
If you do not get your desired cleaning results, try using a larger
amount of detergent. If you have excess suds, try using less
detergent.
NOTES:
A small amount of water may remain in the dispensers from
the previous wash cycle. This is normal.
