OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Loading the liquid or powder detergent compartment
1 Pour the recommended amount of laundry detergent directly into the detergent compartment before starting
your washer.
2 If you are using color-safe bleach, add it with the detergent to the detergent compartment.
Loading the bleach compartment (liquid bleach only)
• Add chlorine bleach to the bleach compartment. Do not over-fill the compartment.
• There is no water inlet to the bleach dispenser, so the bleach will directly load into the tub when you pour it in.
Loading the fabric softener compartment
• Pour the recommended amount of liquid fabric softener into the softener compartment. The dispenser
automatically releases liquid fabric softener at the correct time during the rinse cycle.
Step 4: Select the appropriate cycle and options for the load
1 Turn the cycle selector to select a washing cycle. For information on wash cycles, see Washer options and
settings on page 25.
2 Optional: Use the control panel buttons (like Fabric Softener) to customize the washing cycle. For descriptions
of buttons, see Control panel
on page 9. For information about which buttons are available for each cycle type,
see Washer options and settings
on page 25.
Step 5: (Optional) Set a delayed start time
You can program a wash cycle, then set a time when you want a wash cycle to begin.
1 Press the Delay button to turn on the delay start time function.
Notes
:
• When adding color-safe bleach with detergent, both laundry products should be in the same form (liquid).
• If you are using powered detergent, remove the trays in the detergent compartment.
CAUTION
:
• Avoid splashing or over-filling the compartment.
• Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly onto the load or into the tub. Doing so can damage fabrics, by
weakening of the fibers or stripping the color.
Note
: Do not pour color-safe bleach into the bleach compartment. Instead, add it to the detergent compartment.
CAUTION
:
• Use the softener compartment ONLY for liquid fabric softeners.
• Do not use the Downy Ball® in the fabric softener compartment.
• Do not use liquid fabric softener that is too sticky as it may not mix with the water sufficiently.
• Be sure to select the Fabric Softener option when using fabric softener so that it is released in the rinse portion of the
cycle.
