Bleach Dispenser
The bleach dispenser
is located in
the left front comer, under the
loading door.
Use liquid bleach in the dispenser.
Powdered
bleach must not be
used in the dispenser.
Add
powdered
bleach to the wash
water.
Use no more than one cup
chlorine
bleach for large loads,
three-quarters
cup for medium
and one-half cup for small loads.
Carefully
pour recommended

Fabric Softener
Dispenser
To Use Dispenser
After the clothes
are loaded into
the washtub
and before the start
of the WASH
cycle, pour the
proper amount of liquid fabric
softener into the bottle measuring
cap (see bottle directions).
Pour
into dispenser.
The large fabric softener
dispenser
allows for the fabric
softener to be diluted with water.
We recommend
adding
water up
to the fill level. Do not exceed tip
of arrow which indicates
correct
fill level. Over-filling
can al!ow
fabric softener to spill onto the
clothes.
Setting the water level to medium
or higher will result in better
performance
from the fabric
softener.
The fabric softener will remain in
the dispenser
during
the wash fill,
agitation
and spin. At the end of
the wash spin, the liquid fabric
softener will be dispensed
into the
washtub through
the slots in the
agitator and will be mixed with
the incoming
rinse water.
To Clean The Dispenser
Remove the dispenser
housing
from agitator
by squeezing
the
lower part of the dispenser,
pulling directly
upward and at the
same time tilting slightly.
This
will expose the dispenser
cup,
which is also removable
for
cleaning
(refer to illustration).
Both housing
and cup can be
soaked in hot soapy water and
rinsed clean. The tunnel shape in
top of agitator also needs to be
cleaned. The hole and the slots in
the two rings will require using a
small brush for proper cleaning.
After cleaning,
install dispenser
cup, then push dispenser
housing
directly downward
onto top of
agitator until firmly snapped
together.
Use Tips
• Fabric softener spilled onto
garments
may cause staining.
To remove,
soak in a soapy
solution made from Sard
Wonder
Soap or rub the stain
with a bar of Sard, then wash.
• Liquid fabric softeners
will be
dispensed
during the final rinse
and should not be combined
with bleach, bluing, starch,
detergents,
soaps or packaged
water conditioners
during this
rinse.
• Fabric softener
is not to be
used in dispenser
when using
Prewash
cycle, if available.
° When adding detergent
to wash
water, do not allow any to enter
into softener
dispenser
cup, as
softener will become gummy.
To prevent softener
buildup, the
dispenser
can be filled with clean
water for automatic
cleaning.
This
can be done in washing
cycles
other than when softener
is used.
