ARE AND LEANING
Turn off the water faucets after finishing the
day's washing. This will shut off the water supply
to the clothes washer and prevent the unlikely possi-
bility of damage from escaping water.
Use a soft cloth to wipe up all detergent, bleach or
other spills as they occur.

LEANING THE
The interior of the washer should be cleaned period-
ically to remove dirt, soil, odor or bacteria residue
that may remain in the washer as a result of washing
clothes. We recommend taking the following steps
every 60 to 120 days to clean and freshen your wash-
er interior. The frequency with which the washer
should be cleaned and freshened depends on factors
such as usage, the amount of dirt, soil or bacteria
being run through your washer, or the use of cold
water.
To clean and freshen the washer interior:
1. Select Normal cycle, hot wash/cold rinse
water temperature, heavy soil level and the max
extract spin option.
