DETERGENT AND DISPENSER USE
A Word About Detergents
High-Efficiency (HE) detergents produce fewer suds,
dissolve more efficiently to improve washing and
rinsing performance, and help to keep the interior of
your 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.

ormal Load Amount
Liquid Powdered
Detergent Detergent
For proper wash performance, always measure the
detergent using the measurements provided by the
detergent manufacturer.
The normal amount of HE detergent needed, for aver-
age loads, is less than 1/2of the recommended maxi-
mum. Use less detergent for soft water, light soil or
smaller loads. Never use more than the maximum
amount recommended by the detergent
manufacturer.
Designed to use only
High-Efficiency (HE) detergent
IMPORTANT: Your washing machine is designed for use
with only High-Efficiency (HE) detergents. HE detergents
are formulated specifically for High-Efficiency washers
and contain suds-reducing agents. Always look for the
HE symbol when purchasing detergent.
IMPORTANT: Not all detergents are the same. Pay
careful attention to the amount of detergent used to avoid
overusing, poor rinsing and detergent buildup in clothing,
and residue buildup that can contribute to odors in the
machine. NEVER use a cup or scoop other than the one
supplied by the manufacturer of the detergent you
are using. Never use more than the maximum amount of
detergent recommended by the manufacturer.
Always measure the detergent amount. While HE
detergents are designed for this type of washing
machine, be careful when measuring the detergent. For
most normal loads, no more than 1/4to 1/2 of cap or
scoop of HE detergent should be used.
NOTE: Extra care must be exercised when using 2X and
3X concentrated detergents because even a little bit extra
can contribute to the problems mentioned above.
NOTE: Detergents designated as HE compatible may not
provide optimal results.
Using the Softener and Detergent Dispenser
To add detergent, bleach, and fabric softener to the
automatic dispenser:
Open the dispenser drawer.
Load the laundry products into the
appropriate compartments.
Close the drawer before starting the cycle.
NOTE: It is normal for a small amount of water to
remain in the bleach and softener compartments at the
end of the cycle.
IMPORTANT: Do not place or store laundry products,
such as detergent, bleach, or liquid fabric softener, on
top of your washer or dryer. Wipe up any spills immedi-
ately. These products can damage the finish and controls.
Using the Liquid Bleach Dispenser
The bleach dispenser automatically dilutes and
dispenses liquid bleach at the proper time in the
wash cycle.
Check clothing care special
labels for
instructions.
Measure liquid bleach carefully, following
instructions on the bottle. High-efficiency washers
use less water, so less bleach is needed. One half
cup is enough for most loads.

Carefully pour the pre-measured amount of
bleach directly into the bleach dispenser. If you
are using powdered bleach of any kind, pour it
directly into the tub before adding the laundry.
Never add powdered bleach to the liquid bleach
dispenser.
• Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly
onto clothes or into the tub.
• Do not pour powdered bleach into bleach dispenser.
• Do not place laundry items on top of the bleach
dispenser when loading and unloading the washer.
• Always measure and pour bleach carefully. Avoid
overfilling or splashing when adding bleach to the
dispenser. The maximum capacity of the bleach
dispenser is one cup of bleach per wash cycle.
Overfilling could result in bleach being dispensed
immediately.
