Pre-wash Detergent Compartment
Add liquid or powdered detergent to this 
compartment when using the pre-wash option.

washing machine.

y
If liquid detergent is to be used for the main 
wash when using the pre-wash option, the 
liquid detergent cup accessory must be used 
in main wash dispenser to prevent the main 
wash liquid detergent from being dispensed 
immediately.
 
y
The amount of detergent added for the pre-
wash option is 1⁄2 the amount recommended for 
the main wash cycle. For example, if the main 
wash cycle requires one measure of detergent, 
add 1⁄2 measure for the pre-wash option.

This compartment holds laundry detergent for the 
main wash cycle, which is added to the load at 
the beginning of the cycle. Always use HE (High-
Efficiency) detergent with your washing machine.

when adding detergent. Using too much detergent 
can result in detergent buildup in clothing and the 
washer. Either powdered or liquid detergent may be 
used.

Liquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be 
added to the main wash compartment with 
detergent of the same type.
