Add
laundry
products
Add a measured
amount
of HE detergent
or
single-dose
laundry
packet
into the basket.
If using Oxi-type
boosters,
color-safe
bleach,
or fabric
softener
crystals,
add
to the bottom
of the washer
basket
before
adding
clothes.
iMPORTANT:
Use only High Efficiency
detergents.
The package
will be marked
"HE" or "High
Efficiency."
Low-water
washing
creates
excessive
sudsing with a regular
non-HE detergent.
Using regular
detergent
will likely result in longer
cycle
times and reduced
rinsing
performance,
it may also result
in component
failures
and noticeable
mold or mildew.
HE
detergents
are made
to produce
the right amount
of suds for
the best performance.
NOTE:
Follow
the manufacturer's
instructions
to determine
the
amount
of laundry
products
to use.
