Detergent Amount Recommendations 

Use only a low sudsing detergent, one or two table-
spoons (maximum) of the standard powder detergent 
or liquid equivalent.  

The degree of soil will change detergents amounts. 
For heavier soiled loads, increase the amount of deter-
gent used, for lightly soiled loads decrease the amount 
of detergent used.  

If water is extremely hard, detergent should be 

 

 

 

 

   

increased. Reduced detergent amounts should be used 
in soft water (under 3.5 grains per gallon).  

If garments have been pre-treated, decrease the 
amount of detergent. If garments have been heavily 
pre-treated, it may not be necessary to add detergent. 

If the previous machine owned was a top loader, the 
initial wash loads in a front loader may require a     
reduced amount of detergent  until  the  detergent      
remaining in the clothes is removed. Old detergent 
trapped in the garments will be released during the  
tumble action wash cycle.

 

 
Detergent will be flushed automatically into the machine 
from the detergent dispenser. The suds level should never 
rise more than halfway up the porthole. Too much foam 
will not only impede the wash action of your machine 
but will rinse through the detergent dispenser and make a 
mess on the floor! 
If this should happen clear excessive suds by setting 
the timer to the beginning of the first rinse and allow 
the machine to rinse out.
  

   

Bleach 
Bleach functions to whiten clothes, remove certain 

 

 

problem stains, to deodorize and in some cases to      
sanitize; however bleaching is not a substitute for good 
laundry techniques. Bleach only during the wash cycle. 
Bleach should never be added to the rinse water. Always  
dilute bleach before using. 
To add bleach, open detergent dispenser door and pour it  
in compartment “C” front left. Model LWD1054M, 
WDC1025, WDC1025M. 
WARNING: Under no circumstances overfill the bleach 
dispenser. Excessive bleach will run directly into the  
machine, and may damage the clothes. 
 
Liquid Fabrics Softeners 
All fabrics, particularly towels and diapers, benefit from 
the use of fabric conditioners in the final rinse. Items of 
laundry feel softer, are more easily ironed and the    
clinging affect of synthetics is considerably reduced. 
We recommend using a bio-friendly softener or other 
softeners that appear light or white in color and have a 
more liquid consistency. These type products are found 
to dissolve more thoroughly in less water in this type  
machine. 
Add one to two tablespoons of softener to the 
“Additives” compartment of the detergent dispenser.  
Under  no circumstances overfill, as the softener will   
immediately siphon into the machine and in so doing  
impair the wash results.
