Fabric Softener Compartment
This compartment holds liquid fabric softener, which
is automatically dispensed during the final rinse cycle.
Do not exceed the manufacturer's recommendations
when adding softener. Using too much fabric softener
can result in buildup in clothing and the washer.
Either powdered or liquid fabric softener may be
used.
• Follow the manufacturer's recommendations when
adding fabric softener. Do not exceed the maximum
fill line. Using too much fabric softener may stain
clothes.
• Dilute concentrated fabric softeners with warm
water. Do not exceed the maximum fill line.
• Never pour fabric softener directly onto the load or
into the drum.
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 machine damage.
Designed specially to use only HE
(High-Efficiency) detergent
• 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.
• 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 machine.
• Use extra care when measuring 2X and 3X
concentrated detergents because even a small
amount extra can lead to problems.
• Detergents designated as HE-compatible may not
provide optimal results.
• Do not use more than one detergent pod 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, press the Extra Rinse button.
