CARE AND CLEANING

Inside Routine Cleaning (Preventative)

To help prevent odors, mold or mildew, leave the door open for a few hours after use or whenever the washer is not in use.

CAUTION

ENTRAPMENT and TIP-OVER HAZARD Do not leave the door open if there are small children or pets present. An open door could entice children to hang on the door or crawl inside the washer. If there are no small children present, you may leave the door ajar to prevent odor build up.

TO REFRESH OR CLEAN INSIDE OF WASHER

To clean and freshen the washer, perform the System Clean Cycle. For best results use the System Clean Cycle once a month. To begin the cycle, press and hold the Spin Speed and Options buttons simultaneously for 10 seconds until the display changes to “CLn”.

IMPORTANT

Items left in washer while performing the System Clean Cycle will cause a severe out-of-balance situation that could damage the washing machine.

REMOVE ALL ITEMS FROM WASH DRUM before filling the detergent chamber with one (1) cup of liquid chlorine bleach OR one (1) pouch of TIDE® WASHING MACHINE CLEANER. DO NOT use both. Press Start/Pause to begin.

For best results

Immediately follow up with a Spin Only Cycle. Select Extra Rinse on Max Spin Speed with no detergent or bleach to help clear any residual bleach left after the System Clean Cycle.

￿NOTE

If the System Clean Cycle is cancelled or paused during the cycle, the washer will go through 2 rinse cycles to clean the drum of any residual bleach before unlocking the door.

Press and hold both for ten seconds to enter System Clean cycle.

WARNING

HARMFUL VAPOR HAZARD

Do not use or mix liquid chlorine bleach with other household chemicals such as toilet cleaners, rust removers, acid or products containing ammonia. These mixtures can produce dangerous fumes which can cause serious injury or death.
