Caring for your AquaSmart™ washer

Cleaning the inside of your washer
It is important that you occasionally clean the inside of your washer. Your AquaSmart™ has a
self cleaning cycle specifically for this purpose. We recommend that you use the BASKET CLEAN
cycle after every 100 cycles. Your AquaSmart™ will remind you to do this (the BASKET CLEAN
cycle icon or LED will flash to alert you). We suggest that you do not have any items in the
washer during this cycle.
Add approximately two scoops of a powdered detergent directly into the detergent dispenser.
1
Touch POWER to power your washer on (if it is not already) and select the BASKET CLEAN cycle.
2
Touch START/PAUSE to commence the cycle (refer to page 32 for details about the cycle).

Cleaning your low profile agitator
If your low profile agitator becomes stained we recommend you use household bleach to clean
it. Ensure you wear gloves, tip a small amount of household bleach onto a soft cloth and apply
to the stain. Do not tip the bleach directly onto the low profile agitator. Be careful to avoid
metal surfaces of your washer. Leave it to soak in for 10 minutes and repeat. Then put your
AquaSmart™ washer through the BASKET CLEAN cycle to remove any residual bleach.
Automatic lint disposal system
With AquaSmart™ there is no need to remove messy lint filters. Your AquaSmart™ has a self
cleaning lint disposal system. It automatically separates the lint from the wash water as it
washes. The lint becomes trapped between the inner basket and outer tub and is flushed out at
the end of the wash.
Diaper sanitizers/bleach
Diaper sanitizers and bleach are very corrosive to metal surfaces. DO NOT use your AquaSmart™
to soak items in bleach or sanitizer, or tip the contents of the diaper bucket into your washer.
Rinse and wring items out thoroughly before placing them in the washer.
Pre-wash stain removers
Avoid directly exposing any part of your washing machine to pre-wash fabric stain removers as
they can contain aggressive solvents that cause damage to plastic and painted surfaces. Apply
stain remover away from your washer, or protect the surface, eg with a towel. If exposure occurs
immediately wipe down the lid with warm soapy water, then dry with a clean, dry, soft towel.
