Cleaning Your Washer
Cleaning the exterior
Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to wipe up any spills such as
detergent or bleach. Occasionally wipe the outside of your
washer to keep it looking new.
Cleaning the interior
Add 1 cup (250 mL) of chlorine bleach and 1 scoop or capful of
detergent to the washer, and run it through a normal cycle using
hot water. Repeat this process if necessary.
NOTE: Remove any hard water deposits using only cleaners
labeled as washer safe.
Cleaning the lint filter:
Clean filter after every load.
1. Grasp the top of the fabric softener dispenser and pull
straight upward to remove. The lint filter is attached to the
end of the shaft.
2. Wash or wipe the lint filter clean.
3. Push fabric softener dispenser and lint filter firmly back into
agitator.
Cleaning the liquid fabric softener dispenser:
Flush fabric softener dispenser periodically with warm water.
1. Grasp the top of the dispenser and pull upward to remove.
2. Flush the dispenser with warm water. Replace after cleaning.
NOTE: To avoid damage to the washer or clothing, do not wash
clothes with the fabric softener dispenser removed. Do not add
detergent or bleach to this dispenser; it is for liquid fabric
softener only.
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
Vacation, Storage, and Moving Care
Install and store your washer where it will not freeze. Because
some water may stay in the hoses, freezing can damage your
washer. If storing or moving your washer during freezing weather,
winterize it.
Non-use or vacation care:
Operate your washer only when you are at home. If you will be on
vacation or not using your washer for an extended period of time,
you should:
Unplug washer or disconnect power.
Turn off the water supply to the washer. This helps avoid
accidental flooding (due to a water pressure surge) while you
are away.
To winterize washer:
1. Shut off both water faucets.
2. Disconnect and drain water inlet hoses.
3. Put 1 qt (1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze in the basket.
4. Unplug washer or disconnect power.
To use washer again:
1. Flush water pipes and hoses.
2. Reconnect water inlet hoses.
3. Turn on both water faucets.
4. Plug in washer or reconnect power.
5. Run the washer through any cycle with ½ the normal
recommended amount of detergent to clean out the
antifreeze.
To transport the washer:
1. Shut off both water faucets.
2. Disconnect and drain water inlet hoses.
3. If washer will be moved during freezing weather, put in
1 qt (1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze in the basket.
4. Disconnect the drain from the drain system.
5. Unplug the power cord.
6. Place the inlet hoses into the basket.
7. Drape the power cord and drain hose over edge into the
basket.
Reinstalling the washer
1. Follow the installation instructions for your model to locate,
level and connect the washer.
2. Run the washer through any cycle with ½ the normal
recommended amount of detergent to clean out the
antifreeze, if used.
