PREPARATION
Liquid Bleach Compartment
This compartment holds liquid chlorine bleach, which will be 
dispensed automatically at the proper time during the wash 
cycle. Avoid overfilling or splashing when adding bleach 
to the dispenser. The maximum capacity of the bleach 
dispenser is one cup of bleach per wash cycle. Overfilling 
could result in premature dispensing of bleach, which will 
result in fabric damage.
 
NOTE
Do not add powdered or liquid color-safe bleach to this  
ü
compartment.
Always follow the manufacturer’s recommendations  
ü
when adding bleach. Do not exceed the maximum fill 
line. Using too much bleach can damage fabrics.
Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly onto  
ü
the load or into the drum. Fabric damage can occur.

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. 
Never exceed the manufacturer’s recommendations 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.
 
NOTE
Liquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be added  
ü
to the main wash compartment with detergent of the 
same type.
When using liquid detergent, make sure the liquid  
ü
detergent cup and insert are in place. Do not exceed 
the maximum fill line.
When using powdered detergent, remove the insert  
ü
and liquid detergent cup from the compartment. 
Powdered detergent will not dispense with the liquid 
detergent cup and insert in place.

automatically dispensed during the final rinse cycle.

result in stained clothes.
