CHOOSING THE RIGHT DETERGENT
Use only High Efciency detergents. The package will be marked
“HE” or “High Efciency.” Low-water washing creates excessive
sudsing with a non-HE detergent. Using non-HE detergent
will likely result in longer cycle times and reduced rinsing
performance. It may also result in component malfunction and,
over time, buildup of mold or mildew. HE detergents should be
low-sudsing and quick-dispersing to produce the right amount
of suds for the best performance. They should hold soil in
suspension so it is not redeposited onto clean clothes. Not all
detergents labeled as High Efciency are identical in formulation
and their ability to reduce suds. For example, natural, organic,
or homemade HE detergents may generate a high level of suds.
If you use one of these and see a “SUD” error code appear in
the display, consider using a different HE detergent. Always
follow the detergent manufacturer’s instructions to determine the
amount of detergent to use.
Use only High Efciency (HE) detergent.
About Detergent Concentration
Today’s liquid HE detergents are concentrated. Most brands of
concentrated HE detergent will show the level of concentration
on the bottle.
However, if the detergent bottle does not give the concentration,
it can be easily calculated. Just divide the package size in uid
ounces by the number of loads. Then refer to the chart below to
nd the concentration.
If you do not get your desired cleaning results, try using a lower
concentration number. If you have excess suds, try using a higher
concentration number.
Concentration Number of ounces ÷ number of loads
2X 1.5–2.49 (44.4 mL–73.6 mL)
3X 0.9–1.49 (26.6 mL–44.1 mL)
4X 0.7–0.89 (20.7 mL–26.3 mL)
5X 0.5–0.69 (14.8 mL–20.4 mL)
6X 0.3–0.49 (8.9 mL–14.5 mL)
8X < 0.29 (8.6 mL)
USING THE DISPENSERS (varies by model)
1. For a single load, open the single load dispenser drawer at
the top left corner of the washer.
2. Add laundry products as described below.
3. Slowly close the dispenser drawer. Make sure it is
completely closed.
NOTES:
■
A small amount of water may remain in the single load
dispenser from the previous wash cycle. This is normal.
■
Add single-dose and Oxi-type boosters to the drum before
loading items. See the “Using Your Washer” section.

(HE) detergent.
Powdered detergent:
Lift the selector to the high
position. Add directly to the
