Maintenance
The correct care of your washer can extend its life. This section explains how to care for your washer properly and safely.
•When cleaning your machine, ensure that the machine is unplugged and the water supply is closed off.
Cleaning your Washing Machine
Exterior
•Wipe up detergent, bleach, and other spills with a soft, damp cloth or sponge as and when they occur.
•Occasionally wipe the outside of the washer to keep it looking like new.
Interior
•Clean interior with 250ml of chlorine bleach mixed with 500ml of detergent. Run washer through a complete cycle. Repeat this process if necessary.
Important note
•Do not put sharp or metal object in your washer, or they can damage the finish. Check all pockets for pins, clips, money, bolts, nuts, etc.
•Do not lay these objects in your washer after emptying pockets.
Winter storage or moving care

To winterize washer
•Turn off water faucet.
•Disconnect and drain water inlet hoses.
•Run washer on a drain and spin setting (see page 10) for 1 minute.
•Unplug the power supply cord.
To use washer again
• Flush water pipes and hoses.
• Reconnect water inlet hoses.
• Turn on water faucet.
