1. Before starting, ensure you have the right detergent. Speed Queen recommends using a high efficiency or 'HE' detergent.
2. Remove the washer lid by lifting it upwards.
3. You will see a central agitator in the washing machine. Around it, there should be a dispensing cup or a portion in the drum where you can put the detergent.
4. Measure the recommended amount of detergent. Many detergents have a measuring cup included in the packaging. Refer to the detergent bottle for the correct amount.
5. Pour the detergent directly into the drum or dispensing cup of the washer. Avoid adding detergent on top of clothes as it can stain them.
6. If you are using fabric softener, bleach, or pre-wash stain remover, make sure to place them in their respective dispensers or add them at the appropriate time according to your model’s directions.
7. Once everything is added, you can load your laundry into the washer. After loading, you can close the lid and then select your desired settings on the washing machine panel. Press 'start' to begin the washing cycle.
Note: Instructions may vary slightly between different models of Speed Queen washers; always refer to your user manual for specific instructions.

To determine the age of your Speed Queen washer, you can look for the serial number on the appliance. The serial number encodes information about the manufacturing date. Follow these steps:
1. Locate the serial number: On most Speed Queen washers, the serial number is located on a white or silver sticker attached to the back panel, near the top. Sometimes it can also be found in the control panel or underneath the lid.
2. Decode the serial number: Speed Queen serial numbers generally consist of a combination of letters and numbers. The format may vary depending on the model and year of manufacture.
3. Contact the manufacturer: Once you have the serial number, you can reach out to Speed Queen's customer service or visit their website. Provide them with the serial number and request assistance in determining the age of your washer. They should be able to decode the serial number and provide you with the manufacturing date.
Alternatively, you can try using online appliance dating resources or forums dedicated to Speed Queen appliances. These resources may have compiled information about serial number formats and manufacturing dates, allowing you to determine the approximate age of your washer on your own.
