Filling laundry detergent
and/or additives
q Open the flap of the detergent
dispenser.
q Add the detergent and/or additive.
Dispenser I:
Dispenser for detergent, stain remover.
i
We recommend HE detergents
because they are particularly
designed to deliver optimum
performance from your
front-loading washer. Not
using HE detergent could cause
problems such as oversudsing,
extended cycle periods, or a
decrease in wash performance.
Dispenser II:
Cleaning additives, e.g. fabric softener,
fabric conditioner. Do not fill over edge
of max line!
Dispenser III:
Dispenser for liquid bleach (chlorine
bleach, color safe bleach).
Do not overfill!
i
Concentrated or thick fabric
softener, conditioner and
powder-bleach must be diluted
with a little water before being
poured into the dispenser
(prevents overflow due to
obstruction).
i
Close the flap of the detergent
dispenser. Please ensure the
lid is entirely closed.
