See "Using the Dispenser" for information on using the dispenser drawer. A Precision Dispense Ultra Cartridge Each dispenser cartridge holds up to 20 oz. of liquid HE detergent, enough for up to 36† loads, depending on cycle and detergent concentration. The cartridge fits into compartment B of the dispenser drawer for convenient loading. n Change detergent concentration setting if detergent used is different than factory preset of 2x concentration. n Change water hardness setting if desired level is different than factory preset of normal. B Powdered High Efficiency "HE" detergent compartment This compartment holds powdered HE detergent for a single load. C Liquid fabric softener compartment Automatically dilutes and dispenses liquid fabric softener at the optimum time in the cycle. n Use only liquid fabric softener in this dispenser. D Liquid chlorine bleach compartment Automatically dilutes and dispenses liquid chlorine bleach at the optimum time during the first rinse after the wash cycle. This compartment cannot dilute powdered bleach. Normal/Ca Press and Warm/Cold Temperature 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 regular non-HE detergent. Using regular detergent will likely result in longer cycle times and reduced rinsing performance. It may also result in component failure and, over time, build-up of 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. Use only High Efficiency (HE) detergent. † The number of loads will vary, depending on detergent concentration, load size, cycle used, and soil level. The maximum capacity of up to 36 loads requires use of 6x concentration detergent. 5
