5. Add detergent, bleach and fabric softener to automatic dispenser following these steps:
A. OPENING AND CLOSING THE DISPENSER DRAWER
• Slowly open the dispenser drawer by first sliding the
safety latch to the right, then pulling the drawer 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 and fabric softener.
B. DETERGENT
• Add measured detergent to the detergent compartment
of the dispenser drawer.
• Detergent is flushed from the dispenser at the beginning
of the cycle. Either powdered or liquid detergent can
be used. Note: Liquid detergent will drain into the
washer drum as it is added.
• High efficiency (HE), low sudsing detergent is
recommended for this washer. Use the manufacturer's
recommended amount.
• If low sudsing detergent is not available, a reduced
amount of regular detergent may be used. Because
reducing the amount of detergent may reduce cleaning,
it is important to pretreat stains, sort carefully by color
and soil level, and avoid overloading.
• Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water
temperature, water hardness, size and soil level of the
load.
• For best results, avoid oversudsing.
C. C. C. C. C. LIQUID BLEACH LIQUID BLEACH LIQUID BLEACH LIQUID BLEACH LIQUID BLEACH
• If desired, measure out the recommended amount of
liquid chlorine bleach (not to exceed 1/3 cup (80 mL))
and pour it into the center compartment labeled
"Liquid Bleach" and marked with this symbol .
• Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling can
cause early dispensing of the bleach which could result
in damaged clothes.
• Do not pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly
onto the load or into the drum. Fabric damage can
occur.
• Do not use powdered bleach in the dispenser.
• Laundry products used with powder or liquid detergent,
such as color-safe bleach, water conditioner, detergent
booster, and enzyme products should be added to the
empty tub before loading.
Note: From time to time you may see water in the bleach
and fabric softener compartments. This is a result of the
siphoning action and is part of the normal operation of the
washer.
D. FABRIC SOFTENER
• If desired, pour the recommended amount of fabric
softener into the compartment labeled "Fabric Softener"
and marked with this symbol .
• Dilute concentrated softeners with warm water to the
Fill Line.
• Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling can
cause early dispensing of the fabric softener which
could result in stained clothes.
• Do not pour fabric softener directly on the wash
load.
• Use of a fabric softener dispensing ball is not
recommended in tumble action washers.
