WATER INLET HOSES

Replace inlet hoses after five years of use to reduce the risk
of hose failure. Periodically inspect and replace inlet hoses
if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear, or leaks are found.
When replacing your inlet hoses, mark the date of replacement
on the label with a permanent marker.

WASHER CARE

Recommendations to Help Keep Your Washer Clean and
Performing at Its Best
1. Always use High Efficiency detergents and follow the
detergent manufacturer's instructions regarding the amount
of detergent to use. Never use more than the recommended
amount because that may increase the rate at which
detergent and soil residue accumulate inside your washer,
which in turn may result in undesirable odor.
2. Use warm and hot wash water settings sometimes (not
exclusively cold water washes), because they do a better
job of controlling the rate at which soils and detergent
accumulate.
3. Always leave the washer lid open between uses to help
dry out the washer and prevent the buildup of odor-causing
residue.

Cleaning the Dispensers
After a period of using your washer, you may find
some residue buildup in the washer's dispensers. To remove
residue from the dispensers, wipe them with a machine
cleaning wipe or a damp cloth and towel dry. Do not
attempt to remove the dispensers or trim for cleaning.
The dispensers and trim are not removable. Use an
all-purpose surface cleaner, if needed.

Use a machine cleaning wipe or a soft, damp cloth
or sponge to wipe away any spills. Use only a Machine
Cleaning Wipe or mild soaps or cleaners when cleaning
external washer surfaces.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging the washer's finish,
do not use abrasive products.
