USING THE LIQUID FABRIC

SOFTENER DISPENSER

After loading the washer, measure and add the recommended amount of fabric

softener into the dispenser. Follow manufacturer's directions.

NOTE: Pouring too much fabric softener into the dispenser will cause the fabric softener to dispense instantly into the load due to siphoning action. This instant "dump" could damage fabrics and will make it appear that your dispenser is not working correctly.

To Remove the Fabric Softener

Dispenser for Cleaning

STEP 1. Pull the blue lock ring up, then remove dispenser from agitator by pulling up.

STEP 2. Flush the dispenser with warm water.

To Replace the Fabric Softener

Dispenser

STEP 1. Be sure the blue lock ring

is pulled up. Starting at an angle (see illustration), push the bottom of the dispenser down on the agitator top.

STEP 2. When the dispenser is seated on the agitator, push the blue lock ring down until it snaps in place. It must fit tightly.

•Add warm water to fill the dispenser until it reaches the crossed opening at the bottom of the funnel-shaped portion of the dispenser.

•Fabric softener is dispensed into the first deep rinse water automatically.

NOTE: Fabric softeners are not com-

patible with detergents. This dispenser should never be used in the PREWASH

Cycle since it would dispense fabric softener into a wash load that has not

been riinsed. Undiluted fabric softener

spilled on fabric may result in spots that look like oil stains.

If you ever use your dispenser this way by mistake, rewash the load with extra deterg,_nt to remove these deposits.
