residue is removed.

Cleaning the control panel
To clean the control panel, use only a warm, damp cloth.
Do not spray water or cleaning solvents on the control panel.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer
surfaces because they will scratch the finish and could
remove the writing on the control panel.
Some paper towels may also scratch the finish.
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, record the date of replacement.
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.
Slightly open door to provide ventilation.
To winterize washer:
1. Put 1 qt (1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze in the drum.
2. Run washer on a SPIN cycle.
3. Unplug washer or disconnect power.
4. Shut off both water faucets.
5. Disconnect water inlet hoses from faucets and drain.
