Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly onto
the load or into the tub. It is a powerful chemical and
can cause fabric damage, such as weakening of the
fi bers or color loss, if not used properly.
Oxi-type boosters or color-safe bleach can be added to
the drum prior to adding laundry.
Put the laundry into the drum only after confi rming
that the oxi-type boosters or color-safe bleach has
completely entered the hole of the drum.
To use powdered detergent and powder oxi-type
boosters or powdered color-safe bleach at the same
time, it is more eff ective to put them in the drum
together before adding the laundry. When you use
powdered detergent, remember to remove the Liquid
Detergent holder from the detergent compartment.
Use the softener compartment ONLY for liquid fabric softeners.
DO NOT use a Downy Ball* in the Fabric softener compartment of this washer. It will not
be added at the appropriate time.
Use the detergent compartment.
