• Clothing with long strings may become entangled with other clothes. Make sure to tie the strings before starting the wash. STEP 3 Use a laundry net

• Brassieres (water washable) must be placed in a laundry net. Metal parts of the brassieres may break through and tear other laundry items.

• Small, light clothing such as socks, gloves, stockings, and handkerchiefs may become caught around the door. Place them inside a ne laundry net.

• Do not wash the laundry net by itself without other laundry. This may cause abnormal vibrations that could move the washer and result in injury. STEP 4 Determine the load capacity Do not overload the washer. Overloading may cause the washer to not wash properly. NOTE When washing bedding or bedding covers, the wash time may be lengthened or the spin efciency may be reduced. For bedding or bedding covers, the recommended maximum spin cycle speed is 800 rpm, and the load capacity is 2.0 kg or less. CAUTION If the laundry is unbalanced and the “Ub” information code is displayed, redistribute the load. Unbalanced laundry may reduce the spinning performance. WW22K6800AW-A2_03645A_EN.indd 28 2015/12/23 17:24:27Before you start English 29 STEP 5 Apply a proper detergent type The type of detergent depends on the type of fabric (cotton, synthetic, delicate items, wool), color, wash temperature, and degree of soiling. Always use “low suds” laundry detergent, which is designed for automatic washers. NOTE

• Follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations based on the weight of the laundry, the degree of soiling, and the hardness of the water in your local area. If you are not sure about the water hardness, contact a local water authority.

• Do not use detergent that tends to be hardened or solidied. This detergent may remain after the rinse cycle, blocking the drain outlet. CAUTION When washing wool using the WOOL, use only a neutral liquid detergent. If used with WOOL, powder detergent may remain on the laundry and discolor the laundry. Use HE detergent only Your washer is designed to use high efciency (HE) detergents.

• For the best cleaning results, use a high efciency detergent such as Tide HE, Wisk HE, Cheer HE or Gain HE*. High efciency detergents contain suds suppressors that reduce or eliminate suds. When fewer suds are produced, the load tumbles more efciently and cleaning is maximized. (* Brand names are trademarks of their respective manufacturers.) WARNING Regular detergent is not recommended. Use HE detergents only. WW22K6800AW-A2_03645A_EN.indd 29 2015/12/23 17:24:27Before you start Before you start English30 Detergent drawer guidelines The washer provides a three-compartment dispenser: the rst compartment for the main wash, the second for fabric softeners, and the third for liquid chlorine bleach.

1. Main-wash compartment: Apply main-

wash detergent, water softener, soaking detergent, color–safe, non–chlorine bleach, and/or stain removers.

2. Softener compartment: Apply fabric

softener. Do not exceed the max line (A).

3. Bleach compartment: Apply liquid

chlorine bleach. CAUTION

• Do not open the detergent drawer while the washer is operating.

• Do not use the following types of detergent: - Tablet or capsule types - Ball or net types

• To prevent the compartment from clogging, concentrated or highly-enriched agents (fabric softener or detergent) must be diluted with water before being applied. To apply washing agents to the detergent drawer

1. Slide open the detergent drawer.

2. Apply laundry detergent to the main-wash compartment as instructed or

recommended by the manufacturer. To use liquid detergent, see page 31.

3. Apply fabric softener to the softener compartment. Do not exceed the max line (A).

CAUTION Powder fabric softener is not recommended. Use liquid fabric softener only.

4. Close the detergent drawer.

WW22K6800AW-A2_03645A_EN.indd 30 2015/12/23 17:24:28Before you start English 31 CAUTION

• Do not apply powder detergent to the liquid detergent container.

• Concentrated fabric softener must be diluted with water before applied.

• Do not apply main-wash detergent to the softener compartment. To use liquid detergent First insert the provided liquid container in the main-wash compartment. Then, apply liquid detergent to the container below the marked max line (A). CAUTION Do not exceed the max line that is marked inside the container. Remove the liquid container if using power detergent. To use bleach compartment First insert the provided drawer bleach in the bleach compartment. Apply only liquid chlorine bleach to the drawer bleach. Do not exceed the max line (A). CAUTION Do not apply undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly onto the load or into the drum. It is a powerful chemical and can cause fabric damage, such as weakening of the bers or color loss, if not used properly. To use oxi-type boosters or color-safe bleach Oxygen boosters or color-safe bleach can increase washing performance. Make sure to add the oxygen booster or color-safe bleach after putting the laundry into the drum. NOTE To use both powder detergent and powder oxygen booster or powder color-safe bleach, it is more effective to put them together into the drum before loading the laundry.
