Operation Instructions
Cleaning the Detergent Dispenser Drawer
When detergent builds up in and around the drawer, remove the drawer by
pressing on the plastic part of the softener compartment marked “PUSH”
(Fig. 10A). Place under running water for a few minutes to remove buildup.
Clean and wipe out the area around the dispenser with a damp cloth before
replacing the drawer.
Tips
Do not use liquid detergent for pre-wash because the detergent will wash
out of the drawer. Use only (HE) powdered detergent in the pre-wash
compartment.
Use low-suds high efficient (HE) detergent made for front-loading washers.
For HE detergents, use only 1 – 2 tablespoons. Too much detergent can
leave residue on your clothing and damage the washer/dryer.
Do not use hand-washing detergent, as it may foam too much and damage
your machine.
Do not over use Fabric Softener. Use 1 to 2 tablespoons only!
Reduce the amount of detergent for cold water washing, as it dissolves less
easily in cold water.
Do not exceed recommended amounts of detergent and softener, as it will
result in poor washing, rinsing, and drying efficiency.
For (HE) liquid detergent use, refer to page 13.
