Special Features

Fabric Softener Dispenser

This dispenser automatically releases liquid fabric sof-
tener at the proper time during the cycle. To use, follow
these steps:
1. Pour liquid fabric softener into the dispenser using
the amount recommended on the package.
2. For proper dispensing of fabric softener in the wash-
er, add warm water to the fabric softener in the dis-
penser until the level reaches the fill line. Wipe up
spills.
• Do not stop the washer during the first spin. This
will cause the dispenser to empty too soon.
• Never pour fabric softener directly on the load. It
will leave spots and stains.
• Use the dispenser for liquid fabric softeners only.
Care & Cleaning
Turn off the water faucets after finishing the day's
washing. This will shut off the water supply to the
washer and prevent the unlikely possibility of damage
from escaping water.
Use a soft cloth to wipe up all detergent, bleach or other
spills as they occur.
Clean the following as recommended:
Control Panel – clean with a soft, damp cloth and glass
cleaner. Do not use abrasive powders or cleaning
pads.
Cabinet – clean with soap and water.

Interior – hard water deposits may be removed, if
needed, using a recommended cleaner labeled
washer safe.
The interior of the washer should be cleaned periodi-
cally to remove dirt, soil, odor or bacteria residue that
may remain in the washer as a result of washing
clothes. We recommend taking the following steps
every 60 to 120 days to clean and freshen your washer
interior. The frequency with which the washer should
be cleaned and freshened depends on factors such as
usage, the amount of dirt, soil or bacteria being run
through your washer, or the use of cold water.
To clean and freshen the washer interior:
1. Add a measured amount of chlorine bleach to the
bleach dispenser, following package directions
for a normal load.
2. Add 1/4 cup of detergent to the tub.
3. Run the washer through a complete cycle using
hot water and the Super water level setting.
4. Repeat the process if necessary.
