WASHER MAINTENANCE
CLEANING YOUR WASHER
Keep your washer as clean and fresh as your clothes.
To keep washer interior
1.Make sure laundry drum is empty.
2.Using recommended Affresh® washer cleaner, add one tablet to washer basket
OR
If using liquid chlorine bleach, add 2/3 cup (160 mL) to liquid chlorine bleach dispenser.
IMPORTANT: Do not add detergent to Clean Washer with Affresh™ cycle. Do not use more than recommended amount of bleach to avoid damaging product over time.
3.Close washer door and dispenser drawer.
4.Select CLEAN WASHER with Affresh™ cycle.
5.Press and hold START/PAUSE.
NOTE: The basket will rotate, then the door will unlock, lock again, and then the cycle will continue. The washer will not fill, and the basket will rotate while the washer runs a short sensing cycle. This will take approximately 3 minutes.
6.The cycle will determine whether clothing or other items are in the washer. If no items are detected in the washer, it will proceed to Step 8.
If the Wash LED light flashes, the door will unlock. Remove clothing or items in the washer. Press POWER to cancel the flashing LED light. Then repeat steps 1, 2, and 6 to start the cycle again.
7.Once the cycle has started, allow cycle to complete.
8.After the cycle has ended, leave the door open slightly, to allow for better ventilation and drying of washer interior.
To clean exterior:
1.Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to wipe up any spills.
2.Use mild soap and water if needed.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging washer finish, do not use abrasive products.
