11. Remove garments promptly after cycle is finished

Promptly remove garments after cycle has completed to avoid odor and rusting of metal objects on garments. When unloading garments, pull back the door seal and check for small items between the tub and the basket.

If you will be unable to remove the load promptly, use the Fresh Spin™ option to automatically tumble the load periodically for up to 6 hours.

NOTE:

nAfter any wash cycle is completed, the door must be opened and then closed before a new cycle can begin.

nA small amount of water may remain in the dispensers after the wash cycle is complete. This is normal.

nThis washer has a tight seal to avoid water leaks. To avoid odors, leave the door open to allow the washer to dry between uses.

WASHER CARE

Recommendations to Help Keep Your Washer Clean and Performing at its Best

1.Always use High Efficiency (HE) detergents and follow the HE detergent manufacturer’s instructions regarding the amount of HE detergent to use. Never use more than the recommended amount because that may increase the rate at which detergent and soil residue accumulate inside your washer, which in turn may result in undesirable odor.

2.Use warm or hot water washes sometimes (not exclusively cold water washes), because they do a better job of controlling the rate at which soils and detergent accumulate.

3.Always leave the washer door slightly ajar between uses to help dry out the washer and prevent the buildup of odor-causing residue.

Cleaning Your Front Loading Washer

Read these instructions completely before beginning the routine cleaning processes recommended below. This Washer Maintenance Procedure should be performed, at a minimum, once per month or every 30 wash cycles, whichever occurs sooner, to control the rate at which soils and detergent may otherwise accumulate in your washer.

Cleaning the Door Seal

1.Open the washer door and remove any clothing or items from the washer.

2.Inspect the seal between the door opening and the drum for stained areas or soil buildup. Pull back the seal to inspect all areas under the seal and to check for foreign objects.

3.If stained areas or soil buildup are found, wipe down these areas of the seal using either of the following two procedures:

a.affresh® Grit Grabber™ Cloth Procedure:

i.When the cycle is complete, gently pull back the rubber door seal and clean the entire surface with the rough side of the Grit Grabber™ cloth.

b.Dilute Liquid Chlorine Bleach Procedure:

i.Mix a dilute bleach solution, using 3/4 cup (177 mL) of liquid chlorine bleach and 1 gallon (3.8 L) of warm tap water.

ii.Wipe the seal area with the dilute solution, using a damp cloth.

iii.Let stand 5 minutes.

iv.Wipe down area thoroughly with a dry cloth and let washer interior air dry with door open.
