Simply pull the drawer out and pour the measured amounts of detergent and softener into the proper compartments (as illustrated) and close the drawer. Prewash detergent Main wash detergent Fabric softener NOTE: We recommend that you don't use bleach in your ASKO washer. The tumbling wash action, temperature control options and extended wash times are sufficient to remove most stains. The detergent drawer is equipped with an optional child safety catch. (See your Use and Care Guide. ) DETERGENT AND FABRIC SOFTENER AMOUNTS Because ASKO washers use less water than conventional top-loading washers, you need less detergent and fabric softener. We recommend that you use a low-sudsing powder detergent only, preferably a high-efficiency (HE) detergent designed specifically for front-loading washers.
