OPERATING YOUR WASHER

Using the liquid chlorine bleach dispenser

(on some models)

Always measure liquid chlorine bleach. Do not guess. Never use more than 1 cup

(250 mL) for a full load. Use less with lower water level settings. Follow manufacturer’s directions for safe use. Use a cup with a pouring spout to avoid spilling.

1.Load the washer.

2.Pour measured chlorine bleach carefully into the dispenser. Do not let bleach splash, drip, or run down into washer basket. Undiluted bleach will damage any fabric it touches.

3.Start the washer. Bleach will be diluted and dispensed automatically during wash part of cycle.

NOTE: Do not use this dispenser to add powdered chlorine or color safe bleach to your wash load. The dispenser is for liquid chlorine bleach use only.

Adding liquid chlorine bleach

(on models with no bleach dispenser)

Always measure liquid chlorine bleach. Do not guess. Never use more than 1 cup (250 mL) for a full load. Follow manu- facturer’s directions for safe use. Use a cup with a pouring spout to avoid spilling.

1.Let the washer fill and begin agitating the load.

2.Add bleach to wash cycle so it can be removed in the rinse cycle. Pour bleach around agitator, not directly on load.

•Follow directions on care labels. Do not use chlorine bleach on wool, silk, spandex, acetates, or some flame- retardant fabrics.

•When soaking with chlorine bleach, add detergent to soak water.

NOTE: Undiluted bleach will damage any fabric it touches. The damage appears as rips, holes, tears, or color loss and may not show up until several washings later.

Adding liquid fabric softener

•Always dilute fabric softener with 1⁄2 to 1 cup (125 to 250 mL) warm water. Undiluted fabric softener can stain fabrics.

•Add diluted fabric softener only in the final rinse.

•Fabric softener should not be mixed with other laundry products because greasy stains may form. If stains form, remove by wetting the stain and rubbing with liquid detergent or a bar of soap. Rewash the stained item.

•Too much fabric softener can make some items (diapers and towels) nonabsorbent. If this happens, use less fabric softener or do not use it every time.
