Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water
temperature, water hardness, size and soil level of the
load. Avoid using too much detergent in your washer as
it can lead to oversudsing, detergent residue being left
on the clothes, and could extend wash times.
Do not put clumped detergent in the dispenser. Clumped
detergent can cause a leak.

packets in the dispenser
drawer.
Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling can
cause early dispensing of the bleach which could result
in damaged clothes.
NOTE: Do not use powdered bleach or laundry
detergent/additive packets in the dispenser.
Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling can
cause early dispensing of the fabric softener, which
