The Detergent Cartridge (3) is located under the Control Panel Housing (13). Fill the detergent cartridge with a maximum of 1 gallon (4 Liters) of
detergent. SERVICE NOTE: Remove the detergent cartridge from the machine prior to fi lling to avoid spilling detergent on the machine.
It is recommended that a separate cartridge be used for each detergent you plan to use. The detergent cartridges have a white decal on them so you can
write the detergent name on each cartridge to avoid mixing them up. When installing a new cartridge, remove the factory cap and place the cartridge in
the machine. Install the Dry Break Cap (AA) as shown in Figure 5.
The system should be purged of previous detergent when switching to a different detergent. SERVICENOTE: Move machine over fl oor drain before
purging because a small amount of detergent will be dispensed in the process.
