Cleaning the exterior

Turn off the water faucets after finishing the day's washing.

This will shut off the water supply to your Washer and prevent the unlikely possibility of damage from escaping water. Leave the door open to allow the inside of your Washer to dry out.

Use a soft cloth to wipe up all detergent, bleach or other spills as they occur.

Clean the following as recommended:

Control Panel - Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive powders or cleaning pads. Do not spray cleaners directly on the panel.

Cabinet - Clean with soap and water.

Cleaning the interior

Clean the interior of your Washer periodically to remove any dirt, soil, odor, mold, mildew, or bacterial residue that may remain in your Washer as a result of washing clothes.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in unpleasant conditions, including odors and/or permanent stains on your Washer or laundry.

Hard water deposits may be removed, if needed. Use a cleaner labeled "Washer safe".

Cleaning the dispensers

Storing your washer

Washers can be damaged if water is not removed from hoses and internal components before storage.

Prepare your Washer for storage as follows:

[] Select the Express Wash cycle and add bleach to the

automatic dispenser. Run your Washer through the cycle without a load.

[] Turn the water faucets off and disconnect the inlet hoses.

[] Unplug your Washer from the electrical outlet and leave your Washer door open to let air circulate inside the tumbler.

[] If your Washer has been stored in below-freezing temperatures, allow time for any leftover water in your Washer to thaw out before use.
