ABOUT DETERGENT CONCENTRATION Today's liquid HE detergents are concentrated. Most brands of concentrated HE detergent will show the level of concentration on the bottle. If so, simply set the concentration level in the Precision Dispense menu to match the level shown on the bottle. However, if the detergent bottle does not give the concentration, it can be easily calculated. Just divide the package size in fluid ounces by the number of loads. Then refer to the chart below to find the concentration. If you do not get your desired cleaning results, try using a lower concentration number. If you have excess suds, try using a higher concentration number. Concentration 1X 2X 3X 4X 5X 6X Number of ounces ÷ number of loads >2.5 1.5 - 2.49 0.9 - 1.49 0.7 - 0.89 0.5 - 0.69 0.3 - 0.49 16

Today’s liquid HE detergents are concentrated. Most brands of
concentrated HE detergent will show the level of concentration
on the bottle. If so, simply set the concentration level in the
Precision Dispense menu to match the level shown on the bottle.
However, if the detergent bottle does not give the concentration,
it can be easily calculated. Just divide the package size in fluid
ounces by the number of loads. Then refer to the chart below to
find the concentration.
If you do not get your desired cleaning results, try using a lower
concentration number. If you have excess suds, try using a higher
concentration number.
