Care and cleaning
Dispenser Drawer Area
Detergent and fabric softener may build up in the
dispenser drawer. Residue should be removed once or
twice a month.
• Remove the drawer by first pulling it out until it stops.
Then reach back into the rear center of the drawer cavity
and press down firmly on the lock tab, pulling out the
drawer.
• Remove all cups and inserts from the dispenser
drawer. Rinse the inserts, cups and drawer with
hot water to remove traces of accumulated laundry
products.
• To clean the drawer opening, use a small brush to clean the recess.
Remove all residue from the upper and lower parts of the recess.
• Return inserts to the proper compartments. Replace the dispenser
drawer.
• To reduce buildup in the Dispenser Drawer area:
Use only HE
High-Efficiency
detergent.

installation. See Installation Instructions in this manual. If these parts are not available, they can be ordered by visiting
