Slide the drawer open and open the lid.
Measure the liquid fabric softener with the detergent dispenser and pour it into the washer.
The softener can also be diluted with water and added directly into the drum. Do not pour undiluted softener directly onto clothing because it may stain fabrics.
Close the lid, slide the drawer closed, and press Start/Pause to restart the cycle.
To disable or enable the fabric softener alert, press and hold the Warm Water and Extra Rinse buttons at the same time for 3 seconds.
Press the Power button to interrupt the cycle.
Select the Rinse+Spin cycle and press the Start/Pause button to start the cycle.
Add the fabric softener at the chimes following instructions above.
Do not use liquid chlorine bleach or powdered bleach in the pedestal washer. To bleach items, use the full-size washer and follow the instructions in the owner's manual included with that machine.
Do not pour liquid detergent and fabric softener directly onto the clothes in the wash drum, doing so will cause dark staining on the clothes that will be difficult to remove.
Do not open the drawer when water is being supplied during the wash.
Solvents (benzene, etc.) must never be used.
