Select DELAY WASH until the desired delay time (in hours)

IMPORTANT: When delaying a cycle, use only powdered
detergents in the main wash compartment since liquid
detergents may seep out of the compartment during Delay
Wash, before the wash cycle begins.
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.
Use only HE High Efficiency detergent.
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).
Your new washer has a dispenser drawer with three separate
compartments for your laundry products--one is for detergent,
one is for liquid chlorine bleach, and one is for liquid fabric
softener. Laundry products are diluted and dispensed
automatically at the proper time during the wash cycle, making it
unnecessary for you to return to the washer during the cycle to
add them.
It is normal for small amounts of water to remain in the
dispensers when the wash cycle is complete.
Do not put laundry products directly into the wash tub. Always
use the proper dispensers when adding laundry products.

Main Wash detergent compartment
(Letter B in Dispenser Illustration)
Add liquid or powdered HE detergent to this compartment for
your main wash cycle. The detergent type selector (B) must
always be in the correct position for the detergent type used.
IMPORTANT: If you are using the Delay Wash option, powdered
detergent must be used in the Main Wash compartment, since
liquid detergents may seep out of the Main Wash compartment
before the main wash begins.
• Do not fill beyond the "MAX" level. Use the detergent
manufacturer's recommended amount for load size.
