A dd liquid fabric softener to dispenser Fabric softener dispenser Detergent dispenser Add a measured amount of HE detergent into detergent dispenser. IMPORTANT: Use only High Efficiency detergents.

Using regular detergent will likely result in longer cycle times and reduced rinsing performance. It may also result in component failures and noticeable mold or mildew. HE detergents are made to produce the right amount of suds for the best performance. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to determine the amount of detergent to use. NOTE: If using an Oxi laundry boost product, add to the detergent dispenser. HELPFUL TIP: See "Washer Maintenance" for information on recommended method of cleaning washer dispensers. 5.
