Cleaning the Dispenser Drawer

The dispenser drawer is removable for easy cleaning.
1. Open the dispenser drawer. Unlock the dispenser drawer by pressing the Release Lever
on the left side of the dispenser drawer. See “Using the Dispenser”. Remove the drawer.
2. Wash the dispenser under running water to clean. Allow to dry.
3. Return the dispenser to drawer.

Cleaning the exterior

Use a soft damp cloth or sponge to wipe up any spills. Occasionally wipe the outside of your
washer to keep it looking new. Use mild soap and water. Do not use abrasive products.

Water Inlet Hoses

Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the risk of hose failure. Periodically inspect
and replace inlet hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear, or leaks are found.
When replacing your inlet hoses, record the date of replacement.

Vacation, Storage, and Moving Care

Install and store your washer where it will not freeze. Because some water may stay in the
hoses, freezing can damage your washer. If storing or moving your washer during freezing
weather, winterize it.

Non-use or vacation care:

Operate your washer only when you are at home. If you will be on vacation or not using
your washer for an extended period of time, you should:
Unplug washer or disconnect power.
Turn off the water supply to the washer. This helps avoid unintended flooding (due to a
water pressure surge) while you are away.
Slightly open door to provide ventilation.

To winterize washer:

1. Put 1 qt (1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze in the drum.
2. Run washer on a Drain & Spin cycle.
3. Unplug washer or disconnect power.
4. Shut off both water faucets.
5. Disconnect water inlet hoses from faucets and drain.

To use washer again:

1. Flush water pipes. Reconnect water inlet hoses to faucets. Turn on both water faucets.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
re, or electrical shock.
WARNING
2. Plug in washer or reconnect power.
3. Run the washer through the Normal/Casual cycle with 1/2 the manufacturer’s
recommended amount of HE detergent for a medium-size load, to clean the washer and
remove the antifreeze, if used.

To transport the washer:

1. If washer will be moved during freezing weather, put in 1 qt (1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze
in the drum. Run washer on a Drain & Spin cycle.
2. Unplug the power cord.
3. Disconnect the drain hose from the drain system and attach to rear panel clips.
4. Shut off both water faucets.
5. Disconnect the water inlet hoses from faucets, then drain the hoses and clip them to the
rear panel of the washer.
IMPORTANT: Call for service. Do not reuse transport bolts. Washer must be transported in the
upright position. To avoid suspension and structural damage to your washer, it must be
properly set up for relocation by a certified technician.

Reinstalling the washer

1. Follow the “Installation Instructions” to locate, level, and connect the washer.
2. Run the washer through the Normal/Casual cycle with 1/2 the manufacturer’s
recommended amount of HE detergent for a medium-size load, to clean the washer and
remove the antifreeze, if used.
