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 fabric softener or detergent.
You may see water in the fabric softener compartment 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.
Detergent Compartment
• Only use high-efficiency detergent in this washer. Use the detergent manufacturer's recommended amount.
DO NOT fill above the MAX line.
• Detergent is flushed from the dispenser at the beginning of the wash cycle. Either powdered or liquid high-efficiency
detergent can be used.
• 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 since it can lead to oversudsing and detergent residue being left on
the clothes.
Cup and Cavity Drawer System
The detergent compartment is in the left side of the
dispenser drawer. The detergent cavity (cup removed) is
used for powder detergent, and the detergent cup is used
for liquid detergent.
• Powder Detergent – Remove the detergent cup and
pour the suggested amount of powder detergent into
the detergent cavity.
• Liquid Detergent – Leave the detergent cup in the
drawer and pour liquid detergent into the cup. Do not fill
above the MAX line.

Fabric Softener Compartment
If desired, pour the recommended amount of liquid fabric
softener into the compartment labeled "Fabric Softener."
Use only liquid fabric softener in the dispenser.
Dilute with water to the maximum fill line.
Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling can
cause early dispensing of the fabric softener, which
could stain clothes.
NOTE: Do not pour fabric softener directly on the wash
load.
