Gently close the detergent dispenser drawer
before starting the cycle.
• Slamming the drawer closed may result in
the detergent overflowing into another
compartment or dispensing into the drum
earlier than programmed.
• Be careful not to get a hand caught in the
drawer while closing.
• It is normal for a small amount of water to
remain in the dispenser compartments at
the end of the cycle.
CAUTION
• Do not place or store laundry products, such as
detergent, bleach, or liquid fabric softener, on
top of your washer. These products can damage
the washer's finish and controls.
Pre-wash Detergent Compartment
Add liquid or powdered detergent to this
compartment when using the Pre-wash option.
Always use HE (High-Efficiency) detergent with
your washer.
• When using the Pre-wash option, liquid
detergent for the main wash needs to be loaded
in the liquid detergent cup accessory in the main
wash dispenser (where applicable), to prevent it
from being dispensed with the pre-wash
detergent.
• The amount of detergent added for the Pre-
wash option is 1/2 the amount recommended
for the main wash cycle. For example, if the main
wash cycle requires one measure of detergent,
add 1/2 measure for the Pre-wash option.
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.
Liquid Bleach Compartment
This compartment holds liquid bleach, which is
dispensed automatically at the proper time during
the wash cycle. The dispenser is activated twice to
ensure complete dispensing of the bleach. Any
liquid remaining in the dispenser at the end of the
cycle is water, not bleach.
WARNING
• Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or
acids such as vinegar or rust/scale remover.
Mixing chemicals like these can produce a lethal
gas, resulting in severe injury or death.
NOTE
• Do not add powdered bleach to this
compartment. The bleach compartment is
designed to dispense liquid chlorine bleach only.
Powdered or liquid color-safe bleach will not
dispense properly.
