NOTE: Do not add single-dose laundry packets or fabric softener crystals to dispensers. They will not dispense correctly.

4. Add HE detergent to dispenser

Detergent dispenser

Add a measured amount of HE detergent into detergent dispenser.

IMPORTANT: Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package will be marked “HE” or “High Efficiency.” Low-water washing creates excessive sudsing with a regular non-HE detergent. Using regular detergent will likely result in 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.

HELPFUL TIP: See “Washer Maintenance” for information on recommended method of cleaning washer dispensers.

5. Add liquid chlorine bleach or Oxi product to dispenser

Oxi dispenser

Add liquid chlorine bleach or Oxi laundry boost product to the dispenser. When using Oxi products or other laundry boosters (liquid or powdered

color-safe bleach), select the Oxi option, press the Dispensers button until Oxi is selected. It is not necessary to select the Oxi option when using liquid chlorine bleach.

Do not overfill, dilute, or use more than 3/4 cup (180 mL) of liquid chlorine bleach. Overfilling will cause the bleach or Oxi product to dispense immediately into the washer.

Do not use color-safe bleach or Oxi products in the same cycle with liquid chlorine bleach.

6. Add liquid fabric softener to dispenser

Fabric softener dispenser

Pour a measured amount of liquid fabric softener into dispenser; always

follow manufacturer’s directions for correct amount of fabric softener based on your load size. Then select Fabric Softener option using the Dispensers button.

IMPORTANT: Fabric Softener option must be selected to ensure proper distribution at correct time in cycle. Do not overfill or dilute. Overfilling dispenser will cause fabric softener to immediately dispense into washer.

If Extra Rinse option is selected, fabric softener will be dispensed in the last rinse.

NOTE: Do not use liquid fabric softener dispenser balls in this washer. They will not dispense correctly.
