Getting started
Dispenser Drawers - Overview
Some models are equipped with two SmartDispense drawers. SmartDispense equipped models have a top drawer that
can be used for manual dosing of detergent, bleach and fabric softener. On these models the rear compartment of the top
drawer can store up to 50 oz of liquid detergent for SmartDispense detergent dosing. Some models are also equipped
with a bottom drawer is used for SmartDispense dosing of fabric softener and can store up to 32 oz of liquid softeners.
For every wash cycle, regardless of whether or not you activate SmartDispense on the controls, the manual
compartments will be used and flushed with clean water. Therefore, if you plan to use Smart Dispense detergent
and/or softener, you should not fill the detergent and/or softener manual compartments.
NOTE: Bleach, powder detergents and sanitizing rinse aids can only be dispensed manually.
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 detergent, bleach and fabric
softener compartments at the end of the cycle. This is a
result of the flushing/siphoning action and is part of the
normal operation of the Combo.
SmartDispense - Detergent (on some models)
When selected, this feature will automatically add
detergent to the wash, eliminating the need to add
detergent for each load.
The detergent amount selection on the control panel
will default to AUTO when first powering up the Combo.
When AUTO is selected, the amount of detergent needed
for each laundry load will automatically be determined
based on the size of the load the machine senses.
For AUTO, the Combo will dispense approximately 1.5 oz
of detergent for an 8 lb normal load. For other loads,
it will adjust proportionally based on the size of load
and garment type. If you select LESS, the amount
of detergent will be reduced by 40% from the default
AUTO level. This may be desired for higher concentrate
detergents or if you have very soft water. For heavily
soiled loads, you may want to select MORE to add 40%
more detergent than the default AUTO level. You can set
the brand/type of detergent in the SmartHQ App so that
the Combo can make adjustments based on detergent
manufacturers' recommendations. These manufacturers'
settings will tailor the adjustments used for AUTO, MORE
and LESS dosing amounts.
NOTE: Not all cycles will allow the use of the
SmartDispense - Detergent feature. If the light is not
illuminated and pressing the SmartDispense - Detergent
button results in a beeping tone, then SmartDispense
is not allowed for the cycle that has been selected.
Detergent will need to be added directly to the detergent
compartment for these cycles.

DO NOT put detergent packets in the dispenser drawer.
NOTE: Use only liquid or powder HE detergents and
additives in the dispenser drawer. Laundry detergent
packets should only be added directly to the wash
basket following the manufacturer's directions.

If it is desired to manually add detergent for a
particular load:
1. Press the SmartDispense - Detergent button on the
control panel until its light turns off which indicates
the SmartDispense feature has been turned off.
2. Set the flap in the detergent compartment to the
type of detergent to be used - Powder or Liquid.

3. Add the desired amount of detergent into the
detergent compartment.
If the display indicates that the SmartDispense tank
is estimating there is insufficient detergent to wash a
load, the LCD screen will warn you. The Combo can still
run a cycle, but it is suggested that you add detergent
in the manual detergent compartment or refill the
SmartDispense tank.
