Choosing the Right Detergent
Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package for this type of detergent will be marked
"HE" or "High Efficiency." This wash system, along with less water, will create too much
sudsing with a regular non-HE detergent. Using regular detergent will likely result in washer
errors, longer cycle times, and reduced rinsing performance. It may also result in component
failures and noticeable mold or mildew. HE detergents are made to produce the right amount
of suds for the best performance. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to determine the
amount of detergent to use. Remember, concentrated detergents such as 2x or higher will use
less detergent based on load size.
Use only HE Hig,h Efficiency deter_ent.
To fill dispenser compartments
1. Pull out the dispenser drawer.
2. Add the desired laundry product to the proper compartment.
3. Push in the dispenser drawer slowly and completely (to avoid a spill).

Main wash compartment
(I.etter B in Dispenser Illustration)
Add liquid or powdered H E detergent to this compartment for your wash cycle. The detergent
type selector (A) must always be in the correct position for the detergent type used. Slide the
detergent type selector to the correct position.
IMPORTANT:
• I.iquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be added to the Main Wash compartment
along with the same type of liquid or powdered detergent.
• Use the detergent and color-safe bleach manufacturer's recommended amount for
load size.
• If you are using the Delay Wash option, powdered laundry products should be used
in the main wash compartment because liquid products may seep out of the
compartment before the main wash begins.
