Close the detergent dispenser drawer slowly.
- Slamming the detergent dispenser drawer may
result in the detergent overflowing into another
compartment or pouring into the tub earlier than
programmed.
NOTE
y
It is normal for a small amount of water to
remain in the dispenser compartments at the
end of the cycle.
Using Detergent/Fabric Softener
Recommended Detergent
Make sure to use HE (High-Efficiency) detergent
for front-loading washing machines. HE detergents
dissolve more efficiently and produce fewer suds to
ensure efficient washing and rinsing. Use the correct
amount of detergent as indicated on the label of the
detergent packaging.
Designed specially to use only
HE (High-Efficiency) detergent
NOTE
y
Only use HE detergents, since using a regular
detergent may produce excessive suds.
y
HE detergents produce fewer suds, dissolve
more efficiently to improve washing and rinsing
performance, and help to keep the interior of
your washer clean.
y
Use less detergent for soft water.
y
Wipe up any spills immediately, as liquids could
damage the finish and the control panel of the
washing machine.
y
Using too much detergent can cause a build-
up in the tub resulting in unsatisfactory
performance and machine malfunction.
y
If you use a detergent that does not dissolve
easily or a detergent with high viscosity, it will
leave a residue on the tub, which may not rinse
properly.
