When laundering wrinkle free items or items of delicate construction, washable woolens or loosely knit items, never use less than the MEDIUM water level set- ting. This will minimize shrinkage, wrin- kling and pulling of seams.
For best results, add the detergent to washtub before adding the load.
Close lid carefully to avoid slamming.
CARE AND CLEANING
Turn off the water faucets after finishing the day’s washing. This will shut off the water supply to the washer and prevent the unlikely possibility of damage from escaping water.
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 and glass cleaner. Do not use abrasive powders or cleaning pads.
Cabinet – clean with soap and water.
Interior – hard water deposits may be removed using a recommended hard water remover/cleaner labeled washer safe. Follow the cleaner manufacturer's directions for use, and make sure the washer is run through a complete cycle to rinse out any remaining cleaning sub- stance.
STORING THE WASHER
Washers can be damaged if water is not removed from hoses and internal compo- nents before storage. Prepare the washer for storage as follows:
•Select NORMAL on the WHITES cycle and add one cup of bleach OR white vinegar to a full load of water without clothes. (Do not mix bleach and vinegar
in the same wash. Hazardous fumes can form.) Run the washer through a com- plete cycle.
•Turn the water faucets off and disconnect the inlet hoses.
•Disconnect the washer from the electri- cal supply and leave the washer lid open to let air circulate inside the tub.
•If the washer has been stored in below – freezing temperatures, allow time for the washer to thaw out prior to use.
•After storage, select NORMAL on the WHITES cycle and run the washer through a complete cycle.
