Whirlpool Front-Load Washer manual Using the Dispenser, Choosing the Right Detergent

Page 11

Using the Dispenser

Your new washer has a dispenser drawer with three separate compartments for your laundry products—one is for detergent, one is for liquid chlorine bleach, and one is for liquid fabric softener. Laundry products are diluted and dispensed automatically at the proper time during the wash cycle, making it unnecessary for you to return to the washer during the cycle to add them.

It is normal for small amounts of water to remain in the dispensers when the wash cycle is complete.

Do not put laundry additives directly into the wash tub. Always use the proper dispensers when adding laundry products.

Choosing the Right Detergent

For best washing performance, use a High Efficiency (HE), or low-sudsing, detergent. Regular detergents may cause oversudsing in the washer. If an HE detergent is unavailable, use

½the recommended amount of regular detergent.

Detergent compartment

(Number 3 in Dispenser Illustration)

Add liquid or powdered detergent to this compartment for your wash cycle. The detergent separator must always be in place, either in the front or back position.

Do not fill beyond the “MAX” level.

Liquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be added to the Main Wash compartment along with the same type of detergent, liquid or powdered.

Liquid detergent: Put the SEPARATOR in the front position, between the guides, as shown following. There will be no gap between the bottom of the wash cycle detergent compartment and the bottom of the separator.

LIQUI

Most detergents formulated for hand-washing are not meant for front-loading washers and may cause oversudsing. Start with ¼ the recommended amount. If oversudsing occurs, try a detergent formulated for high efficiency washers.

To fill dispenser compartments

1. Pull out the dispenser drawer.

2. Add the desired laundry product to the proper compartment.

3. Push in the dispenser drawer completely.
