The dispenser drawer has four separate compartments for adding laundry products to the wash load. These compart- ments are:

1.Prewash Detergent Compartment

2.Main Wash Detergent Compartment

3.Bleach Compartment

4.Fabric Softener Compartment

Laundry products are diluted and dispensed automatically at the proper time during the wash cycle.

The separator in the Prewash and Main Wash Detergent Compartment can be moved to accommodate either liquid or powdered detergents. (Fig. 3-4)

The drawer release lever (shown here is the normal posi- tion) can be installed in alternate position (A) to accommo- date stacking a matching dryer on top of the washer. (Fig. 3- 4)

Refer to Use and Care Guide for the Front-Loading Auto- matic washer for proper use of laundry products.

There are two routes for the water to enter the wash tub. Most of the water flows through the dispenser assembly. A small portion of the water flow around the dispensers and is used to wash the door window.

1.Main Inlet Tube (Fig. 3-5, A)

2.Window Washer Inlet Tube (Fig. 3-5, B)

Air Vent System

As a safety feature, the washer is designed to allow fresh air to circulate through the tub. An inlet vent at the rear of the washer brings air into the tub. (Fig. 3-6A)The fresh air is vented through the dispenser assembly vent tube and out the front of the dispenser drawer cutout. (Fig. 3-6B)
