(The door won't shut if it's slammed. ) Pour the detergent and fabric softener into the proper compartments in the detergent drawer, as illustrated below. (Don't put detergent in the prewash compartment unless you plan to prewash. ) 5. Always refer to the care labels on the garments to be washed for recommended wash temperatures. THE DETERGENT DRAWER The detergent drawer on ASKO washers automatically dispenses the detergent and fabric softener at the appropriate times. Simply pull the drawer out and pour the measured amounts of detergent and softener into the proper compartments (as illustrated) and close the drawer. If you use liquid detergent, you will need to use the main wash compartment partition packaged with your washer. (See your Use and Care Guide. ) 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. Main wash detergent Prewash detergent Fabric softener 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. (Liquid detergents tend to suds more, which make them more difficult to rinse out. ) Detergent ­ The amount of detergent needed varies, depending on the detergent you use. For high-efficiency detergent specifically for front-loading washers, you should use the amounts recommended by the manufacturer.
