Using The Dispenser - Maytag Performance Série Guide D'utilisation Et D'entretien

Using the Dispenser

Your new washer has a dispenser drawer with four separate compartments for your laundry
products—one is for detergent, one is for Oxi/color-safe bleach, 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 products directly into the wash tub. Always use the proper dispensers
when adding laundry products.
Choosing the Right Detergent
Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package for this type of detergent will be marked
"HE" or "High Efficiency." This wash system, along with less water, will create too much
sudsing with a regular non-HE detergent. Using regular detergent will 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 will use
less detergent based on load size.
Use only HE High Efficiency 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 slowly and completely (to avoid a spill).

Oxi/Color-safe bleach compartment
(Letter A in Dispenser Illustration)
Liquid or powdered oxygen based stain fighter/color-safe bleach may be used in this
compartment; however, powder is recommended for optimal timed release. Add your oxygen
based stain fighter/color-safe bleach to this compartment when using the Oxi Treat option.
The oxygen based stain fighter/color-safe bleach will automatically be dispensed during the
wash cycle if the Oxi Treat option is selected. Follow the manufacturer's directions for proper
use.
IMPORTANT: When delaying a cycle, use only powdered product in the Oxi/color-safe
bleach compartment because liquid product may seep out of the compartment during Delay
Wash, before the wash cycle begins.
High efficiency "HE" detergent compartment
(Letter C in Dispenser Illustration)
Add liquid or powdered HE detergent to this compartment for your wash cycle. The detergent
type selector (A) must always be in the correct position for the detergent type used. Slide the
detergent type selector to the correct position.
IMPORTANT:
If you are using the Delay Wash option, powdered detergent should be used in the
compartment because liquid detergents may seep out of the compartment before the
wash begins.
Use the detergent manufacturer's recommended amount for load size.
