Cleaning the Dispenser

•The dispenser may need to be cleaned periodically due to laundry additive build-up.

1Pull the dispenser drawer out until it stops.

2Press down the lock tab on the bleach insert.

Remove the drawer.

3Remove the liquid detergent box, softener and bleach inserts from their compartments.

•Run warm water and a soft brush or cloth over the drawer, liquid detergent box and inserts to remove any excess laundry additives.

•Clean the drawer opening using water and a small brush.

•Follow the illustrations in reverse order to replace the parts to their proper location.

NOTE: Do not use any cleaning substance on the drawer opening other than water because it will drain into the tub.

If this should happen, set the washer for a rinse and spin cycle to remove any cleaning substance from the washer before doing a load of laundry.

The washing drum

•If you live in a hard water area, lime scale can continuously builds up in places where it cannot be seen

and it is not easily removed from the drum.

Over time the build-up of scale clogs appliances, and if it is not kept in check, these will eventually

have to be replaced.

•Although the washing drum is made of Stainless steel, specks of rust can be caused by small metal articles (paper clips, safety pins, etc.) which have been left in the drum.

•The washing drum should be cleaned from time to time.

•If you use descaling agents, dyes, or bleaches, make sure they are suitable for washing machine use.

•Descaler could contain components that can damage part of your washing machine.

•Remove the spots with a stainless steel cleaning agent.

•Never use steel wool.
