Whirlpool GHW9300PW0 UsingtheDispenser, Choosing the Right Detergent, Chlorine bleach compartment

UsingtheDispenser

Your new washer has a dispenser drawer with three separate compartments for your laundry products—one is for detergent, one is for liquid chlorine bleach, and one is for liquid fabric softener. Laundry products are diluted and dispensed automatically at the proper time during the wash cycle, making it unnecessary for you to return to the washer during the cycle to add them.

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

Do not put laundry additives directly into the wash tub. Always use the proper dispensers when adding laundry products.

Choosing the Right Detergent

For best washing performance, use a High Efficiency (HE), or low-sudsing, detergent.

To fill dispenser compartments

1.Pull out the dispenser drawer.

2.Add the desired laundry product to the proper compartment.

3.Push in the dispenser drawer carefully and completely (to avoid spillage).

Add NO MORE THAN ¹⁄₃ cup (80 mL) liquid chlorine bleach to this compartment. The bleach will be automatically diluted and dispensed at the optimum time during the first rinse after the wash cycle. This compartment cannot dilute powdered bleach.

■Always measure liquid chlorine bleach. Use a measuring cup with a pour spout; do not guess.

■Do not fill beyond the “MAX” level. Overfilling could cause severe garment damage.

Fabric Softener compartment

Add ¼ cup (60 mL) liquid fabric softener to this compartment. Fabric softener will be automatically dispensed in the final rinse.
