Detergent and fabric softener
Detergent type
Your WashSmart™ or QuickSmart™ washer requires low sudsing detergent to prevent oversudsing
problems. Low sudsing detergent comes in powder, liquid or pod form and is labelled “Front
Loading”, “Low Suds”, High Efficiency” or “HE”.
Using top loading detergent in your front loader washer may lead to excessive suds formation,
which will lengthen the cycle time as the machine waits for the suds to dissolve.
Where do I put my detergent?
Powdered or liquid detergent is added to the main wash detergent compartment on the left
side of the dispensing drawer marked with a “2”. As the machine fills, some water is flushed
through this compartment to deliver a detergent solution into the drum.
Pods – Detergent pods are a “no mess” alternative to powdered or liquid detergent. They must be
placed at the back of the drum prior to loading your clothes. This will ensure they are activated
quickly in the wash. Do not place pods in the detergent dispenser drawer.
If you wish to use the PRE WASH option, liquid or powdered detergent must be placed in the
prewash detergent compartment on the right side of the drawer, marked with a “1”. When
you select PRE WASH, the pre wash compartment is flushed at the start of the cycle.

Important!
If you select the PRE WASH you cannot use liquid detergent in the main wash detergent
compartment. You must use powdered detergent for the main wash.
Make sure the detergent dispenser draw is completely closed before starting the cycle.
