Dispensers B Cycle Guide A C A Liquid fabric softener dispenser Pour measured liquid fabric softener into the liquid fabric softener dispenser if desired. It will dispense automatically at the optimum time. ■■ Use only liquid fabric softener in this dispenser. NOTE: The fabric softener dispenser rotates around the wash basket and may not be in the same spot each time. B High Efficiency (HE) powdered detergent dispenser Add only powdered HE detergent product to this dispenser for your main wash cycle. Use only High Efficiency (HE) detergent. NOTES: ■■ Follow the manufacturer's instructions to determine the amount of detergent to use. ■■ Add liquid HE detergent or single-dose packets to the basket prior to adding laundry. C Liquid chlorine bleach dispenser This dispenser holds up to ¾ cup (180 mL) liquid chlorine bleach. The bleach will be automatically diluted and dispensed at the optimum time during the Wash cycle. This dispenser cannot dilute powdered bleach. NOTE: Fill dispenser with only liquid bleach. 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 re-deposited 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. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to determine the amount of detergent to use. This section describes the available wash cycles and will help you make the best cycle selections for your wash loads. Each cycle is designed for different types of fabric and soil levels. Always read and follow fabric care labels instructions to avoid damage to your items. Normal Use this cycle for normally soiled cottons and linens. Wash combines medium-speed agitation and high-speed spin to shorten drying time. Delicate Use this cycle for lingerie and loosely knit items. Wash combines low-speed agitation for gentle soil removal and high-speed spin to shorten drying time. Heavy Duty Use this cycle for sturdy or heavily soiled loads. Wash combines high-speed agitation and high-speed spin for maximum soil removal. Rinse Use this cycle for additional rinsing of the washer load or hand-washed items. Spin Use this cycle to remove excess water from the washer load or hand-washed items. Clean Washer Use this cycle every 30 washes to keep the inside of your washer fresh and clean. This cycle uses a higher water level. Use with washer cleaner tablet or liquid chlorine bleach to thoroughly clean the inside of your washer. This cycle should not be interrupted. IMPORTANT: Do not place garments or other items in the washer during the Clean Washer cycle. Use this cycle with an empty washtub. End-of-Cycle Signal The End-of-Cycle signal may be turned on and off by pressing and holding the Cycle "-" button for 3 seconds. 14
