2.Turn off water supply to washer to avoid flooding due to water pressure surges.

3.Clean the dispensers. See “Cleaning the Dispensers.”

WINTER STORAGE CARE

To winterize washer:

1.Shut off both water faucets, disconnect and drain water inlet hoses.

2.Put 1 qt. (1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze in washer drum

4.Unplug power cord.

5.Place inlet hoses and drain hose inside washer drum.
