WASHER MAINTENANCE
WATER INLET HOSES
Replace inlet hoses after 5 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.
NOTE: This washer does not include inlet hoses. See the
"Installation Instructions" for more information.
WASHER CARE
Recommendations to Help Keep Your Washer Clean and
Performing at its Best
1. Always 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 damp cloth and towel dry.
Do not attempt to remove the dispensers or trim for cleaning.
The dispensers and trim are not removable. If your model has
a dispenser drawer, however, remove the drawer and clean
it before or after you run the Clean Washer cycle. Use an all-
purpose surface cleaner, if needed.
Cleaning the Outside of the Washer
Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to wipe away any spills.
Use only mild soaps or cleaners when cleaning external
washer surfaces.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging the washer's finish, do not
use abrasive products.
