It is normal for small amounts of water to remain in the dispensers when the wash cycle is complete.

I)o not put laundry products directly into the wash tub. Always use the proper dispensers when adding laundry products.

Choosing the Right Detergent

This wash system, along with less water, win create too much sudsing with a regular non-HE detergent. Using regular detergent win likely result in washer errors, longer cycle times, and reduced rinsing performance. It may also result in component failures and noticeable mold or mildew. HE detergents are made to produce the right amount of suds for the best performance. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to determine the amount of detergent to use. Remember, concentrated detergents such as 2x or higher win use less detergent based on load size.

Use only HE High Efficiency detergent.
