Adding Detergent

NOTE: Use only low-sudsing, high-efficiency detergent such as Tide® HE.

Add measured detergent to the detergent compartment of the dispenser drawer.

•Do not exceed the maximum fill line.

Detergent is flushed through the dispenser at the beginning of the wash phase. Either powdered or liquid detergent can be used.

When using liquid detergent, make sure the detergent box and insert are in place. For powdered detergent, remove both the detergent box and insert. Powdered detergent will not dispense with the detergent box and insert in place.

Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water temperature, water hardness, size and soil level of the load. Avoid using too much detergent in your washer, as it can lead to oversudsing and detergent residue being left on the clothes.

Adding

Pretreat

Additives

If desired, pour the recommended amount of liquid fabric softener into the left-hand compartment.

Use only liquid fabric softener.

Dilute with water to the maximum fill line.

• Do not exceed the maximum fill line.

Overfilling can cause early dispensing of the fabric softener, which could stain clothes.

NOTE: Do not pour fabric softener directly on the wash load. It may stain the clothes.

The Pretreat dispenser may be used to clean heavily

soiled or stained garments more efficiently. Selecting	ADDITIVES
soiled or stained garments more efficiently. Selecting
ADDITIVES when setting a presoak sets a special
Pretreat that soaks, drains and spins, then refills the
washer for the main wash cycle. If ADDITIVES is not
selected, the washer will not drain and refill after the
presoak.

Place the additives for the Wash Boost setting in the right-hand compartment. Select an Extra Rinse to make sure all remaining detergent is removed from the wash load.

You may add low-sudsing, high-efficiency liquid detergent to this compartment when selecting a Stain Inspector cycle or when choosing a Presoak requiring special additives.

•Do not exceed the maximum fill line to avoid oversudsing.

Overfilling can cause early dispensing of presoak additives, which could result in damaged clothes.
