Pre-Wash Detergent Compartment
Add liquid or powdered detergent to this
compartment when using the Pre-Wash option.
Always use HE (High-Efficiency) detergent with your
washing machine.
NOTE
When using the pre-wash option, if liquid
y
detergent is to be used for the main wash,
the liquid detergent cup accessory must be
used in the main wash dispenser, to prevent
the main wash liquid detergent from being
dispensed immediately.
The amount of detergent added for
y
the Pre-Wash option is 1/2 the amount
recommended for the main wash cycle. For
example, if the main wash cycle requires
one measure of detergent, add 1/2 measure
for the Pre-Wash option.
Main Wash Detergent Compartment
This compartment holds laundry detergent for
the main wash cycle, which is added to the load
at the beginning of the cycle. Always use HE
(High-Efficiency) detergent with your washing
machine.
Never exceed the manufacturer's
recommendations when adding detergent. Using
too much detergent can result in detergent
buildup on clothing and the washer. Either
powdered or liquid detergent may be used.
NOTE
Liquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be
y
added to the main wash compartment with
detergent of the same type.
When using liquid detergent, make sure the
y
liquid detergent cup and insert are in place. Do
not exceed the maximum fill line.
When using powdered detergent, remove
y
the insert and liquid detergent cup from the
compartment. Powdered detergent will not
dispense with the liquid detergent cup and
insert in place.
Fabric Softener Compartment
This compartment holds liquid fabric softener,
which will be automatically dispensed during the
final rinse cycle.
NOTE
Always follow the manufacturer's
y
recommendations when adding fabric softener.
Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Using
too much fabric softener may result in stained
clothes.
Dilute concentrated fabric softeners with warm
y
water. Do not exceed the maximum fill line.
Never pour fabric softener directly onto the
y
load or into the drum.
