DETERGENT USE

POWDER

LIQUID

SOFTENER

DETERGENT COMPARTMENT

Your Amana washer is designed

to use high efficiency (HE) detergents.

• For best cleaning results, use a high efficiency detergent such as Tide HE,Wisk HE, Cheer HE or Gain HE*. High efficiency detergents contain suds suppressors which reduce or eliminate suds. When less suds are produced, the load tumbles more efficiently and cleaning results are maximized.

FEATURES

AUTOMATIC DISPENSER

The washer has separate compartments for dispensing detergent and color-safe bleach, chlorine bleach and fabric softener. All laundry additives are added to their respective compartments before starting the washer.

1. Pour the recommended amount of laundry detergent directly into the detergent compartment before starting the washer.

2. If color-safe bleach is to be used, it should be added with detergent to the detergent compartment.

• When adding color-safe bleach with detergent, it is best if both laundry products are in the same form; granular or liquid.

NOTE: If using liquid detergent, lower the

Detergent Selector and add the detergent to the Detergent Compartment.

CARE AND CLEANING

Turn off the water faucets after finishing the day’s washing. This will shut off the water supply to

the clothes washer and prevent the unlikely possibility of damage from escaping water. Leave the door open to allow the inside of the washer to dry out.

Use a soft cloth to wipe up all detergent, bleach or other spills as they occur.

CLEANING THE INTERIOR

Clean the interior of the washer periodically to remove any dirt, soil, odor, mold, mildew or bacteria residue that may remain in the washer as a result of washing clothes. We recommend taking the following steps every 60 to 120 days to clean and freshen your washer interior. The frequency with which the washer should be cleaned and freshened depends on factors such as usage, the amount of dirt, soil or bacteria being run through your washer, or the use of cold water. Failure to follow these instructions may result in unsatisfactory conditions, including unpleasant odor and/or permanent stains on the washer or washload.

Clean the following as recommended:

Control Panel – Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not

use abrasive powders or cleaning pads. Do not spray cleaners directly on the panel.

Cabinet – Clean with soap and water.

To clean and freshen the washer interior:

1. Make a solution of one cup chlorine bleach and two cups warm water. Be careful not to spill or splash the bleach solution.

2. Wipe the door seal with bleach solution and a soft cloth.

3. Fill bleach dispenser with undiluted chlorine bleach.

4. Run the washer through a complete cycle using hot water.

5. Repeat the wash cycle if necessary.

Hard water deposits may be removed, if needed. Use a recommended cleaner labeled clothes washer safe.

CLEANING THE DISPENSERS

The Automatic Dispenser may need to be cleaned periodically due to laundry additive buildup.

1. Press the release lever on the inside of the dispenser and pull out.
