The Dispenser Drawer

Safety

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.

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.

If the dispenser drawer is pulled out more than 1 1/2” when the washer is in operation, the washer will shut off. The DOOR LOCK indicator light will turn off and the door will be unlocked. Slowly close the drawer, and the washer will automatically

resume operation.
