CLEANING THE DOOR SEAL
1. Open the washer door and remove any clothing or items
from the washer.
2. Inspect the colored seal between the door opening and the
basket for stained areas. Pull back the seal to inspect all
areas under the seal and to check for foreign objects.
3. If stained areas are found, wipe down these areas of the
seal, using the procedure that follows.
a) Mix a dilute solution, using 3/4 cup (177 mL) of liquid
chlorine bleach, and 1 gal. (3.8 L) of warm tap water.
b) Wipe the seal area with the dilute solution, using
a damp cloth.
c) Let stand 5 minutes.
d) Wipe down area thoroughly with a dry cloth and let the
washer interior air dry with door open.
IMPORTANT: Wear rubber gloves when cleaning for
prolonged periods. Refer to the bleach manufacturer's
instructions for proper use.
NON-USE AND VACATION CARE
Operate your washer only when you are home. If moving,
or not using your washer for a period of time, follow these
steps:
1. Unplug or disconnect power to washer.
2. Turn off water supply to washer to avoid flooding due
to water pressure surges.
WINTER STORAGE CARE
IMPORTANT:
To avoid damage, install and store washer
where it will not freeze. Because some water may stay in
hoses, freezing can damage washer. If storing or moving
during freezing weather, winterize your washer.
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 basket
and run washer on RINSE & SPIN cycle for about
30 seconds to mix antifreeze and remaining water.
3. Unplug washer or disconnect power.
IMPORTANT: To reduce risk of hose failure, replace inlet
hoses every five years and periodically inspect for kinks,
cuts, wear, or water leaks.
HELPFUL TIP: When replacing your inlet hoses, mark
replacement date on label with a permanent marker.
