ABOUT THE DISPENSER DRAWER
The automatic dispenser consists of four compartments
which hold:
• Liquid chlorine bleach.
• Liquid fabric softener.
• Liquid or powdered detergent for prewash.
• Liquid or powdered detergent and color-safe bleach  
for main wash.
Pre-Wash Detergent Compartment
Add liquid or powdered detergent to this compartment 
when using the Pre-Wash option. Always use High-
Efficiency (HE) detergent with your washing machine.
The amount of detergent added for the Pre-Wash 
option should be ½ the amount recommended for the 
main wash cycle. For example, if the main wash cycle 
requires ½ measure of detergent, add ¼ measure to the  
Pre-Wash compartment.
NOTE: If using liquid detergent for the main wash when 
using the Pre-Wash option, the liquid detergent cup
accessory must be used in the main wash dispenser. This 
will prevent the main wash liquid detergent from being 
dispensed immediately.
Main Wash Detergent Compartment
This compartment holds laundry detergent for the main 
wash cycle. The detergent is added to the load at the 
beginning of the cycle. Always use High-Efficiency (HE) 
detergent with your washing machine. Either powdered 
or liquid detergent may be used.
Never exceed the manufacturer’s recommendations 
when adding detergent. Using too much detergent can 
result in detergent buildup in clothing and the washer.
NOTE: Liquid or powdered color-safe bleach may be 
added to the main wash compartment with detergent of 
the same type. DO NOT add liquid or powdered 
color-safe bleach to the bleach dispenser. DO NOT mix 
liquid and powdered cleaning agents within the same 
compartment.
Liquid Bleach Compartment
This compartment holds liquid chlorine bleach, which is 
dispensed automatically at the proper time during the 
wash cycle.
• Do not add powdered or liquid color-safe bleach to 
this compartment. The bleach compartment is designed 
to dispense liquid chlorine bleach only. Powdered or 
liquid color-safe bleach will not dispense properly.
• Always follow the manufacturer’s recommendations 
when adding bleach. Do not exceed the maximum fill 
line since this can cause the bleach to be dispensed 
immediately, causing damage to fabrics. Using too much 
bleach can damage fabrics.
• Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly 
onto the load or into the drum. Fabric damage can occur.
Fabric Softener Compartment
This compartment holds liquid fabric softener, which is 
automatically dispensed during the final rinse cycle.
Never exceed the manufacturer’s recommendations when
adding softener. Using too much fabric softener can result 
in buildup in clothing and the washer. Either powdered or 
liquid fabric softener may be used.
• Always follow the manufacturer’s recommendations 
when adding fabric softener. Do not exceed the 
maximum fill line. Using too much fabric softener may 
stain clothes.
• Dilute concentrated fabric softeners with warm water. 
Do not exceed the maximum fill line.
• Never pour fabric softener directly onto the load or 
into the drum.
