Getting started
Dispenser Drawer
Slowly open the dispenser drawer by pulling it out until it stops.
After adding laundry products, slowly close the dispenser drawer. Closing
the drawer too quickly could result in early dispensing of the bleach, fabric
softener or detergent.
You may see water in the dispenser drawer at the end of the cycle. This is a
result of the flushing/siphoning action and is part of the normal operation of
the washer.
Prewash Compartment (on some models)
Only use the Prewash Compartment if you are selecting the Prewash cycle
for heavily soiled clothes. Add measured detergent or prewash additive to
the back left prewash compartment of the dispenser drawer.
Detergent or prewash additive is flushed from the dispenser in the prewash
cycle (if selected).
NOTE: Liquid detergent will drain into the washer drum as it is added.
Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water temperature, water
hardness, size and soil level of the load. Avoid using too much detergent in
your washer as it can lead to over sudsing and detergent residue being left on
the clothes.

of the wash cycle. Either powdered or liquid detergent
can be used.
Selection Insert
The detergent selection insert must be placed in the detergent compartment
in a specific position according to what type of detergent you are using.
Powder Detergent – Remove the detergent selection insert and place it in
a safe location outside of the washer.
Liquid Detergent – You will need to adjust the insert according to the type
of Liquid Detergent you are using. The Icons on the side of the detergent
compartment must line up on the center when the insert is in position.
NOTE: Not all models have the 2x and 3x detergent settings. Some have only
regular HE detergent settings. You must reduce the amount of detergent for
2x or 3x detergent per bottle instructions.
Move the insert by pulling it up and replace it by sliding it down between
either the rear or front detergent compartment molded rails, as desired, for
liquid detergent. Remove for powder detergent.
Liquid detergent may seep under the insert prior to the start of the cycle. This
is normal and will not affect the wash performance.
