Using Laundry Product Dispensers NOTE: Do not add single-dose laundry packets, color-safe bleach, or fabric softener crystals to dispensers. They will not dispense correctly. Add to the basket prior to adding laundry. 4. Add HE detergent HE removable detergent tray 5. Add liquid chlorine bleach to dispenser Liquid Chlorine Bleach Do not overfill, dilute, or use more than 1 cup (236 mL). Do not use color-safe bleach or Oxi products in the same cycle with liquid chlorine bleach. Add a measured amount of HE detergent into detergent tray. This tray holds 3 oz. (89 mL). If adding powder HE detergent, remove inside tray. Do not overfill tray - adding too much detergent may cause detergent to be dispensed into the washer too early and affect performance. NOTE: Make sure tray is in drawer when using liquid detergent and removed when using powder detergent and do not go over the Max line. IMPORTANT: Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package will be marked "HE" or "High Efficiency." Low-water washing creates excessive sudsing with a regular non-HE detergent. 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. IMPORTANT: If using Remote Start to delay a cycle, use only liquid HE detergent in the dispenser. Powdered detergents may absorb moisture from a previous cycle and clump before the wash cycle begins. HELPFUL TIP: See "Washer Maintenance" for information on recommended method of cleaning washer dispenser trays. 6. Add liquid fabric softener or Oxi to dispenser Fabric softener tray Oxi tray Pour a measured amount of liquid fabric softener or Oxi-type boosters into tray; always follow manufacturer's directions for correct amount of fabric softener or Oxi based on your load size. Close dispenser drawer, then select Oxi option. Oxi is added during main wash and Fabric Softener is added during rinse. IMPORTANT: Oxi option must be selected to ensure proper distribution at correct time in cycle. Do not overfill or dilute. Overfilling dispenser will cause fabric softener to immediately dispense into washer. If Extra Rinse option is selected, fabric softener will be dispensed into the last rinse. It is normal for a small amount of water to remain in the dispenser at the end of a cycle. 13
