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, if needed, using a recommended cleaner labeled wash- er safe.

Storing the Washer ...... ....... .................................

Washers can be damaged if water is not removed from hoses and internal components 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. Run the washer through a complete cycle. (Do not mix bleach and vinegar in the same

wash. Hazardous fumes can form.)

Turn the water faucets off and disconnect the inlet hoses.

Advance the cycle control dial to Spin and lower the drain hose to eliminate any water that may be in the drain hose.

°Disconnect the washer from the electrical supply and

leave the washer lid open to let air circulate inside the tub.
