About Detergent Use
This washer is designed for use with only HE (High-
Efficiency) detergents.
• HE detergents produce fewer suds, dissolve
more efficiently to improve washing and rinsing
performance, and help to keep the interior of
the washer clean. Using detergent that is not HE
may cause oversudsing and unsatisfactory
performance which could result in error codes,
cycle failure, and washer damage.
• Detergents designated as HE-compatible may
not provide optimal results.
• For proper wash performance, always measure
detergent using the measuring device provided
by the detergent manufacturer. For an average
load, use less than half of the recommended
maximum. Use less detergent for soft water,
light soil, or smaller loads.
• Use extra care when measuring 2X and 3X
concentrated detergents because even a small
amount of extra detergent can lead to problems.
• Never use more than the maximum amount of
detergent recommended by the manufacturer.
Using too much detergent can lead to
oversudsing, poor rinsing, detergent buildup in
clothing, and residue buildup that can contribute
to odors in the washer.
• Do not use more than one single-use detergent
pack or detergent tablet in the washer. Using too
much detergent may cause oversudsing and
unsatisfactory performance. Reduce detergent
amount or add an extra rinse if detergent
residue is left on fabrics. To add an extra rinse,
select the Extra Rinse option.
