Solutions

Incomplete or no dispensing
of detergent

y Detergent compartments clogged

from incorrect filling

y Make sure that detergent and additives are put in to the

correct dispenser compartments. If liquid detergent is
used, make sure that the liquid detergent cup and insert
are in the detergent compartment. If powdered detergent
is used, make sure that the liquid detergent cup and insert
are not used. For all detergent types, always make sure
that the dispenser drawer is fully closed before the start
of the cycle.

y Too much detergent use

y Make sure that the suggested amount of detergent is

used per the manufacture’s recommendations. You may
also dilute the detergent with water to the maximum fill
line on the compartment to avoid clogging. Use only HE

that the water faucets are turned to their completely open
