Opening and Closing the Dispenser Drawer

5. Add detergent, bleach and fabric softener to automatic dispenser following these steps:

A.OPENING AND CLOSING THE DISPENSER DRAWER

•Slowly open the dispenser drawer by first sliding the safety latch to the right, then pulling the drawer out until it stops.

•After adding laundry products, slowly close the dispenser drawer. Closing the drawer too quickly could result in early dispensing of bleach or fabric softener.

Note: From time to time you may see water in the bleach and fabric softener compartments. This is a result of the siphoning action and is part of the normal operation of the washer.

B.DETERGENT

•Detergent is flushed from the dispenser at the beginning of the cycle. Either powdered or liquid detergent can be used. Note: Liquid detergent will drain into the washer drum as it is added.

•Add a low-sudsing, high-efficiency detergent made for front-loading washers to the dispenser chamber. Look

for this symbol

on the detergent label.

Use the cap or scoop provided bythe detergent manufacturer to measure the amount recommended.

•Color-safebleach,waterconditioner,detergentbooster and enzyme products may be added to the detergent compartment. Avoid mixing liquids and powders.

•Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water temperature, water hardness, load size and soil level.

•For best results, avoid oversudsing.

C.LIQUID BLEACH

and pour it into the center compartment labeled

"Liquid Bleach" and marked with this symbol .

•Fill to the mininum fill line (MIN.)for small loads. Fill to the maximum fill line (MAX.) for large loads. Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling can cause early dispensing of the bleach which could result in damaged clothes.

•Add powder or liquid color-safe bleach to the detergent dispenser.

softener into the compartment labeled "Fabric

Softener" and marked with this symbol .
