Main Wash Detergent Compartment
This compartment holds laundry detergent for the
main wash cycle. Either powdered or liquid
detergent may be used in this compartment.
• The detergent is added to the load at the
beginning of the cycle. Always use HE (High-
Efficiency) detergent with your washer.
• Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Using too
much detergent can result in detergent buildup
in clothing and the washer.
• Liquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be
added to the main wash compartment with
detergent of the same type. Do not mix liquids
and powders
• If the dispenser has a liquid detergent cup and
insert:
- Make sure they are in place when using liquid
detergent.
- Make sure to remove them when using
powdered detergent. Powdered detergent will
not dispense with the liquid detergent cup and
insert in place.
• If you use a detergent that does not dissolve
easily or a detergent with high viscosity, it will
leave a residue and clog the dispenser.
