USING THE WASHER
Getting started
J
When selected, this feature will automatically add 
detergent to the wash, eliminating the need to add 
detergent for each load. 
The detergent amount selection on the 
control panel will default to AUTO when 
first powering up the washing machine. 
When AUTO is selected, the amount of 
detergent needed for each laundry load 
will automatically be determined based 
on the size of the load the machine 
senses. 
If it is desired to manually select the 
amount of detergent for a given load, 
this can be done by pressing the Select 
button on the Smart Dispense control panel to choose 
between Less or More detergent. Less will provide less 
detergent than the Auto selection and More will provide 
more detergent than the Auto selection.
The smart dispense feature can be disabled by pressing 
the Select button on the Smart Dispense control panel 
until Off is selected.
NOTE: Not all cycles will allow the use of the 
SmartDispense feature. If the Off LED is illuminated and 
pressing the Select button results in a beeping tone, then 
SmartDispense is not allowed for the cycle that has been 
selected. Detergent will need to be added directly to the 
wash basket for these cycles.
This model does not have a dispenser drawer for detergent 
since it has a bulk detergent dispensing system.
NOTE: If it is desired to manually add detergent for a 
load, that detergent will need to be added directly to 
the basket, and the smart dispense set to OFF for that 
particular load.
NOTE: The right side of the dispensing area in the rear of 
the washer opening does NOT pull out. It is a spout only 
for water and detergent to flow from the smart dispense 
system.
This machine is equipped with a bulk detergent reservoir 
that can hold approximately 75 ounces of liquid detergent 
for your convenience. This is enough detergent for about 
50 average laundry loads, depending on what dispense 
amount is selected. 
When the Tank Low or Tank Empty LED is illuminated, 
more detergent should be added to the reservoir to ensure 
detergent will be available for the next cycle.
The filling port of the detergent reservoir is located on the 
front left of the washing machine. To fill the reservoir with 
liquid detergent, first open the tank lid by rotating the small 
lid clockwise. Then pour LIQUID detergent into the opening 
until the level reaches the MAX indicator located inside 
the filling port, also indicated with the horizontal line next 
to the MAX lettering. Filling to this MAX level will provide 
detergent for about 50 average laundry loads.
NOTE: If it is desired to change detergent type in the 
detergent tank, it is not required to flush the smart dispense 
system. The new detergent type can be added to a partially-
filled tank, however it will not be immediately dispensed 
until the original detergent is completely dispensed from the 
system.
NOTE: In the event that excessive chlorine bleach is 
accidentally spilled or otherwise gets into the detergent 
tank, please follow the Detergent Tank Clean-Out 
instructions in the Care and Cleaning section in order to 
minimize the possibility for clothing damage. If only a few 
drops of bleach are spilled into the detergent tank, there is 
no need to flush the tank.
