4. Usage

The detergent dispenser typically features multiple compartments for different laundry additives. Refer to your washing machine's user manual for specific compartment functions, but generally:

• Main Wash Compartment: For liquid or powder detergent used in the main wash cycle.
• Pre-Wash Compartment: For pre-wash detergent, if your washing machine has a pre-wash cycle.
• Fabric Softener Compartment: For liquid fabric softener. Do not overfill; ensure the level does not exceed the 'MAX' line.

Always follow the detergent manufacturer's instructions for dosage.

5. Maintenance

Regular cleaning of the detergent dispenser is crucial to prevent blockages and ensure optimal performance.

1. Remove Drawer: Pull out the detergent drawer completely (refer to installation step 2).
2. Clean Compartments: Rinse the drawer under warm running water. Use a small brush (e.g., an old toothbrush) to remove any detergent residue, mold, or mildew from all compartments and the siphon cap (if present).
3. Clean Housing: Wipe the inside of the dispenser housing in the washing machine with a damp cloth to remove any buildup.
4. Reinsert Drawer: Once clean and dry, slide the drawer back into the housing until it locks into place.

Perform this cleaning monthly or as needed, especially if you notice detergent residue or poor dispensing.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your detergent dispenser, consider the following:

• Detergent Not Dispensing:
  • Check for blockages in the dispenser compartments or the water jets above the dispenser.
  • Ensure the water pressure to the washing machine is adequate.
  • Verify that the dispenser drawer is fully inserted.
• Water Leaking from Dispenser:
  • Ensure the dispenser drawer is not overfilled, especially the softener compartment.
  • Check for cracks or damage to the dispenser housing or drawer.
  • Verify that the water inlet hoses are securely connected and not leaking.
• Residue Left in Dispenser:
  • Clean the dispenser thoroughly as described in the Maintenance section.
  • Ensure you are using the correct type and amount of detergent for your water hardness and load size.

If problems persist, consult a qualified technician or contact SELECLINE customer support.
