1.
Lift the front of the drawer up and forward to remove
it from the runners.
2.
Check the position of the flap at the rear of the detergent compartment in the dispenser drawer. (Factory
setting is flap up for powder.)
3.
Clip the flap down if you intend to use liquid detergent.
Remember: If you change the type of detergent
you use, the position of the flap will need
changing. See picture.
4.
You are now ready to add detergent. Measure the
amount required and pour it into the detergent
compartment of the dispenser drawer.
When using liquid detergent, some may leak out of the
dispenser into the wash load earlier than expected
through small openings in the back of the dispenser.
The openings are to help flushing out of detergent.

Caution: Do not overfill the fabric softener dispenser.
Caution: Only use the detergent compartment for
detergent and the fabric softener compartment for
fabric softener.
Before adding softener to the dispenser, make sure the siphon cap is pushed firmly down onto the spigot in the drawer.
The softener will not siphon out if the cap is incorrectly fitted, is missing or blocked with residue. You are now ready to
add fabric softener.
Measure the correct amount as recommended on the softener package into a cup and then pour it into the softener
compartment of the dispenser drawer.
Overfilling and then siphoning out too early can cause
softener and detergent to mix resulting in staining problems.
The softener dispenser holds 90ml when filled up to the
MAX marker. Any level lower than MAX will function
correctly.
