DETERGENT USE

Your Maytag Neptune® TL washer is designed to use either high efficiency (HE) detergents or regular detergents normally used with top-loading washers.

For best cleaning results, use a high efficiency detergent such as Tide HE, Wisk HE, Cheer HE or Gain HE*. High efficiency detergents contain suds suppressors which reduce or eliminate suds.When less suds are produced, the load tumbles more efficiently and cleaning results are maximized.

When using regular detergent formulated for top-loading washers, it is important to pay close attention to the soil level of the load, load size, and water hardness**. To avoid over-sudsing, reduce the amount of detergent used with soft water or with small or lightly soiled loads.

**To determine water hardness in your area, contact your local water utility or State University Extension office in your area.

FEATURES

AUTOMATIC DISPENSERS

The washer has separate compartments for dispensing detergent and color-safe bleach, chlorine bleach and fabric softener. All laundry products can be added at once in their respective compartments before starting the washer.

The detergent dispenser MUST ALWAYS be in place before starting the washer.

DETERGENT DISPENSER

The Detergent Dispenser is located under the lid of the washer. There are two compartments in the dispenser, one for liquid detergent and liquid color-safe bleach, and one for powder detergent and powder color-safe bleach.

The dispenser will automatically dispense the detergent and color-safe bleach (if used) as the washer fills.

NOTES:

When using color-safe bleach, add it to the appropriate dispenser compartment (liquid or powder) with the detergent. Do not mix liquids and powders in the same compartment of the dispenser.

Do not place detergent or softener bottle lids, caps or dispensers into the washtub. Damage to the load or washer may result.
