Last Update date : 2021-02-14
Your washing machine’s dispenser is located in the detergent drawer and dispenses detergent or fabric softener at the proper time during the cycle so your clothes come out clean
Reasons of softener comes along with detergent in washing machine:
- The softener exceeds the max line.
- The washing machine is not at a balanced level.
- The presence of residues inside the detergent drawer.
Make sure that the softener does not exceed the max line

- Softeners should not be filled higher than line indicated with MAX. If the softener is too thick to dispense properly, dilute it with water. However, make sure to not go over the MAX line.
Make sure that the washing machine is at a balanced level

- If the washing machine is not levelled well, it will cause an incorrect slant in the detergent drawer affecting the siphoning of detergent to the drum.
- Make sure that the washing machine is balanced during installation.
- Adjust the balance if the washing machine is not balanced.

Additional tips:
Run a rinse and spin cycle without adding detergent:
- If you see soap bubbles in the wash even though you didn't add anything to the drawer, this is a residue being cleaned out. Keep running more cycles until you don't see soap bubbles anymore.
- This keeps things clean, And it improves the washer's performance, and helps prevent odors.
