cleaning and maintaining your washing machine

Detergent drawer

Turn off the water faucets after finishing the day’s washing.

This will shut off the water supply to your Washer and prevent the unlikely possibility of damage from escaping water. Leave the door open to allow the inside of your Washer to dry out.

Use a soft cloth to wipe up all detergent, bleach or other spills as they occur.Clean the following as recommended:

Control Panel – Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive powders or cleaning pads. Do not spray cleaners directly on the panel.

Cabinet – Clean with soap and water.

Cleaning the interior

Clean the interior of your Washer periodically to remove any dirt, soil, odor, mold, mildew, or bacterial residue that may remain in your Washer as a result of washing clothes.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in unpleasant conditions, including odors and/or permanent stains on your Washer or laundry.

Hard water deposits may be removed, if needed. Use a cleaner labeled “Washer safe”.

Cleaning the dispensers

The automatic dispenser may need to be cleaned periodically due to laundry additive buildup.

1. Pull the detergent drawer forward while pressing the part marked with “1” to separate the detergent drawer from the washer.

2. Hold the part of the separated detergent drawer marked with “2” and pull back the cover. Then you can see the insides of the compartments.

3. Clean the separated detergent drawer and assemble it in the reverse order of the disassembly.
