5. Add detergent, bleach and fabric softener to automatic dispenser following these steps:A. OPENING AND CLOSING THE DISPENSER
DRAWER
• Slowly open the dispenser drawer by first sliding
the safety latch to the right, then pulling the drawer
out until it stops.
• After adding laundry products, slowly close the
dispenser drawer. Closing the drawer too quickly
could result in early dispensing of the bleach and
fabric softener.
• Laundry products used with powder or liquid
detergent, such as color-safe bleach, water
conditioner, detergent booster, and enzyme
products should be added to the empty tub before
loading.
D. FABRIC SOFTENER
• If desired, pour the recommended amount of fabric
softener into the compartment labeled "Fabric
Softener" and marked with this symbol .
• Dilute concentrated softeners with warm water to
the Fill Line.
• Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling
can cause early dispensing of the fabric softener
which could result in stained clothes.
•Do not pour fabric softener directly on the
wash load.
• Use of a fabric softener dispensing ball is not
recommended in tumble action washers.
C. LIQUID BLEACH
• If desired, measure out the recommended amount
of liquid chlorine bleach (not to exceed 1/3 cup (80
mL)) and pour it into the center compartment
labeled "Liquid Bleach" and marked with this
symbol.
• Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling
can cause early dispensing of the bleach which
could result in damaged clothes.
• Do not pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly
onto the load or into the drum. Fabric damage can
occur.
•Do not use powdered bleach in the dispenser.
Note: From time to time you may see water in the
bleach and fabric softener compartments. This is a
result of the siphoning action and is part of the
normal operation of the washer.
B. DETERGENT
• Add measured detergent to the detergent
compartment of the dispenser drawer.
• Detergent is flushed from the dispenser at the
beginning of the cycle. Either powdered or liquid
detergent can be used. Note: Liquid detergent will
drain into the washer drum as it is added.
• Low sudsing detergent is recommended for this
washer. Use the manufacturer's recommended
amount.
• If low sudsing detergent is not available, a reduced
amount of regular detergent may be used.
Because reducing the amount of detergent may
reduce cleaning, it is important to pretreat stains,
sort carefully by color and soil level, and avoid
overloading.
• Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water
temperature, water hardness, size and soil level of
the load.
• For best results, avoid oversudsing.
