Add HE detergent to dispenser
Detergent dispenser
Add a measured amount of HE
detergent into detergent dispenser.
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.
HELPFUL TIP: See "Washer Maintenance" for information
on recommended method of cleaning washer dispensers.
