Liquid Bleach PTW905 and PTW900 models only  
Use a measuring cup to pour the bleach into the bleach  
dispenser. Measure liquid bleach carefully and DO NOT pour  
directly from the bleach bottle into the bleach dispenser.  
NOTE: In the event that detergent is accidentally spilled or  
otherwise gets into the bleach opening, that detergent will  
simply be used for the next wash cycle. In this case there is no  
need to perform any flushing routine.  
NOTE: The bleach dispenser is a single use dispenser and is  
NOT a bulk dispense system. The maximum amount of bleach  
that should be poured into this dispenser for any load should  
never exceed 1 cup.  
NOTE: In the event that excessive chlorine bleach is  
accidentally spilled or otherwise gets into the detergent tank,  
please follow the Detergent Tank Clean-Out instructions in the  
Care and Cleaning section in order to minimize the possibility  
for clothing damage. If only a few drops of bleach are spilled  
into the detergent tank, there is no need to flush the tank.  
Flex Dispense Drawer  
Use this Flex Dispense Drawer for softener/conditioner, pre-wash detergent, detergent packets (laundry packs) and main detergent.  
Liquid fabric softener/conditioner should be added to the far  
left washer drawer compartment. Follow the liquid fabric softener/  
conditioner manufacturer’s recommendations for the correct amount  
of softener/conditioner, based on the load size. Do not overfill  
or dilute softener/conditioner as this can result in additive being  
dispensed prematurely in the wash cycle. Your option selections will  
determine when liquid fabric softener/conditioner is automatically  
dispensed at its optimal time in the rinse cycle.  
HE detergent should be added to the far right  
compartment. Follow the detergent manufacturer’s  
recommendations for the correct amount of detergent,  
based on load size, taking care to add detergent to the right  
compartment. Do not overfill or dilute detergent as this can  
result in additive being dispensed prematurely in the wash  
cycle. Your option selections will determine when detergent is  
automatically dispensed at its optimal time in the wash cycle.  
For optimal performance, especially  
NOTE: Fabric softener crystals should  
NOT be added to the dispenser drawer,  
as they will not dispense properly.  
when selecting cooler temperature  
and in cold weather climates, place  
powdered HE detergent directly on top  
of the load.  
Pre-wash detergent should  
be added to the middle left  
NOTE: Single-dose laundry packets  
should not be added to the detergent  
dispenser, as they will not dispense  
properly. Put packets in the Laundry  
Pack Dispenser Cup.  
(second from left) Custom Add  
compartment. Use with SmartHQ  
App. Fill for heavily soiled loads  
to loosen and remove heavy soil  
before starting the main cycle  
selected. Refer to the SmartHQ App  
for Flex Dispense capabilities.  
Detergent packets (Laundry Packs) should be added to the middle right (third from left) compartment. For best performance,  
pods should be placed in the center (left to right) of the compartment and towards the front of the compartment. Avoid pushing the  
pod to the rear of the compartment unless using two or more pods. Do not lean pods against the side walls of the pod compartment.  
Follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations for the correct number of detergent packets for your wash load. Do not add  
more detergent packets than recommended as this can result in residual detergent being leftover at the end of the cycle. Your option  
selections will determine when detergent is automatically dispensed at its optimal time in the wash cycle.  
NOTE: We recommend the use of High Efficiency  
laundry packs such as Tide PODS™ or Gain Flings™. Some detergent packs  
may not dispense completely at very cold temperatures or in the delicate cycle. In these cases, you may use a warmer temperature  
setting to dispense harder to dissolve detergent packs.  
Liquid Bleach Dispenser  
(PTW705, PTW700, PTW605 and PTW600 models only)  
Liquid chlorine bleach should be added through the  
bleach dispenser in the front left corner. Follow bleach  
manufacturer’s recommendations for the correct amount of  
liquid chlorine bleach based on load size, taking care to not  
apply or spill it directly on clothing.  
NOTE: Do not use liquid chlorine bleach and laundry  
pretreatments such as an Oxi product in the same wash load.
