FIG 14

Interior cleaning

If you use a non-phosphate laundry detergent, you may need to clean buildup and oils from the inside of the washer periodically, especially if you live in an area with hard water. To remove buildup, run the washer through a complete hot water cycle (Heavy Stain or White setting) with no clothes, detergent or other laundry aids added. If desired, add 2 cups of water conditioner or de- liming agent to the detergent dispenser.

General care of the machine

Never use solvents or abrasives to clean the external parts of the washer/dryer. Water supply should be turned off when not in use.

Unplug the machine if you will be gone for a period of time or the machine will not be used.

Clean the detergent drawer periodically (see Cleaning Dispenser, pg. 13). Always unplug the machine during cleaning or maintenance.

Do not use too much detergent or other laundry additives, as excessive amounts could over-suds and damage your washer/dryer.

Before moving the washer/dryer to a new location, reattach shipping bolts, spacers and grommets that were removed during installation (see page 4).
