Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package for this type of
detergent wi|l be marked "HE" or "High Efficiency." This wash system,
along with less water, will create too much sudsing with a regular
non-HE detergent. Using regular detergent will likely result in washer
errors, 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. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to determine the
amount of detergent to use.
Use only HE High Efficiency detergent.

First Wash Cycle Without Laundry
Before washing clothes for the first time, if not completed during
the final installation step, choose the Normal cycle and run it
without clothes. Use only HE High Efficiency detergent. Use 1/2

This initial cycle serves to ensure the interior is clean before
washing clothes.
