Maintenance

The correct care of your washer can extend its life. This section explains how to care for your washer properly and safely.

Cleaning your Washing Machine

Exterior

Wipe up detergent, bleach, and other spills with a soft, damp cloth or sponge as and when they occur.

Occasionally wipe the outside of the washer to keep it looking like new.

Interior

Clean interior with 250ml of chlorine bleach mixed with 500ml of detergent. Run washer through a complete cycle. Repeat this process if necessary.

Important note

Do not put sharp or metal object in your washer, or they can damage the finish. Check all pockets for pins, clips, money, bolts, nuts, etc.

Do not lay these objects in your washer after emptying pockets.

Winter storage or moving care

Install and store your washer where it will not freeze. Because some water may stay in the hoses, freezing can damage your washer. If you store or move your washer during freezing weather, winterize it.

To winterize washer

Turn off water faucet.

Disconnect and drain water inlet hoses.

Run washer on a drain and spin setting (see page 10) for 1 minute.

Unplug the power supply cord.

To use washer again

Flush water pipes and hoses.

Reconnect water inlet hoses.

Turn on water faucet.

Reconnect power supply cord.
