CLEANING THE INTERIOR
Clean the interior of the washer periodically to remove any dirt, soil, odor, mold, mildew or bacteria residue that may remain in the washer as a result of washing clothes.

The frequency with which the washer should be cleaned and freshened depends on factors such as usage, the amount of dirt, soil or bacteria being run through your washer or the use of cold water. Failure to follow these instructions may result in unsatisfactory conditions, including unpleasant odor and/or permanent stains on the washer or washload.
Do not use abrasive powders or cleaning pads. Do not spray cleaners directly on the panel.
Cabinet – Clean with soap and water.
