5. Add detergent, bleach and fabric softener to automatic dispenser following these steps:
A. OPENING AND CLOSING THE DISPENSER DRA WER
• Slowly open the dispenser drawer.
* After adding laundry products, slowly dose the
dispenser drawer. Closing the
drawer too quickly could result in early
dispensing of bleach or fabric softener.
Note: From time to time you may see water in the
bleach and fabric softener compartments. This is a
result of the siphoning action and is part of the normal
operation of the washer.
C. LIQUID BLEACH
• If desired, measure out the recommended amount of
liquid chlorine bleach (not to exceed 1/3 cup (80 ml))
and pour it into the center compartment labeled
"Liquid Bleach" and marked with this symbol^ .
• Fill to the mininum fill line (MIN.)for small loads. Fill to
the maximum fill line (MAX.) for large loads. Do not
exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling can cause
early dispensing of the bleach which could result in
damaged clothes.
• Do not pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly
onto the load or into the drum. Fabric damage can
occur.
• Add powder or liquid color-safe bleach to the
detergent dispenser.
