Load laundry into washer
Recommended
maximum
load height
Load garments in loose heaps evenly around basket wall.
For best results, do not load higher than the recommended
maximum load height. Do not wrap large items such as
sheets around the washplate; load them in loose piles
around the sides of the basket. Try mixing different sized
items to reduce tangling.
IMPORTANT:
Do not overload for force items into washer.
Items need to move freely. Overloading can lead to poor
cleaning performance, and may increase wrinkling
and tangling.

Using Laundry Product Dispensers

3.
Add HE detergent to dispenser
Detergent tray
Add a measured amount of HE detergent
into detergent tray. This tray holds 3 oz. (89 mL). Do not overfill
tray - adding too much detergent may cause detergent to be
dispensed into the washer too early.
8
IMPORTANT: Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package
will be marked "HE" or "High Efficiency." Low-water washing
creates excessive sudsing with a regular non-HE detergent.
Using regular detergent will likely result in 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.
Using Oxi or color-safe bleach:
If using an Oxi or color-safe bleach laundry boost product,
add to the bottom of the washer basket before adding clothes.
HELPFUL TIP: See "Washer Maintenance" for information
on recommended method of cleaning washer dispenser trays.
4.
Add liquid chlorine bleach
to dispenser
Liquid
Chlorine Bleach
Do not overfill, dilute, or use more than 1 cup (250 mL).
Do not use color-safe bleach or Oxi products in the same
cycle with liquid chlorine bleach.
5.
Add fabric softener to dispenser
Fabric softener tray
Pour a measured amount of liquid fabric
softener into tray, always follow manufacturer's directions for
correct amount of fabric softener based on your load size. Close
dispenser drawer, then select Fabric Softener option.
IMPORTANT: Fabric Softener option must be selected to ensure
proper distribution at correct time in cycle. Do not overfill or
dilute. Overfilling dispenser will cause fabric softener to
immediately dispense into washer.
If Extra Rinse option is selected, fabric softener will be dispensed
into the last rinse.
It is normal for a small amount of water to remain in the dispenser
at the end of a cycle.
