As the water pass over the detergent section, holes in
the cavity allows some of the water to enter and flush
the detergent cavity.
Since the flow of the incoming water is more than the
holes can dispense, the excess water backs up into a
channel across the rear of the dispenser.
Water in this channel and the mixture from the deter-
gent drawer flow into the tub through the large hose at
the rear of the dispenser.
Detergent is dispensed at the start of the cycle, but
bleach and fabric softener are not dispensed until later
in the cycle. To allow all three items to be added to the
washer before the start of the cycle, the bleach and
softener cavities in the drawer have tubes molded into
the bottom of them.
These tubes allow bleach or softener to be added to
their cavity without being dispensed as long as the liquid
is below the top of the tubes. At the proper time in the
cycle when bleach or fabric softener is to be dispensed,
water is added to the cavity. This raises the mixture above
the top of the tube and the bleach or fabric softener starts
flow into the tub.
