WASHER FEATURES

DETERGENT

Your Maytag Neptune® Super StackTM is designed to use high efficiency (HE) detergents.

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.

If HE detergent is not available, regular detergent may be used.

If 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, which interferes with tumbling, rinsing and spinning and causes extended cycle times, reduce the amount of detergent used with soft water or with small or lightly soiled loads.

NOTE: Reducing the amount of detergent may reduce cleaning. It is important to pretreat stains, sort carefully by color and soil level and avoid overloading.

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

ADDING DETERGENT

Either liquid or granular detergent may be used to wash clothes. Follow the directions on the box or bottle to determine the appropriate amount of detergent. Pour the detergent directly on top of the load in the tub.

If color-safe bleach is to be used, it should be added on top of the load with detergent for best results.

NOTE: If using the “PREWASH” setting, measure 112 times the amount of detergent.

AUTOMATIC DISPENSERS

There are two automatic dispensing compartments. One holds liquid chlorine bleach and the other holds liquid fabric softener. Laundry additives can be added to their respective dispenser compartments.They will be dispensed at the appropriate time for the most effective cleaning and softening.
