MAINTENANCE

Proper care of your washing machine can extend its life. This section explains how to care for
your machine properly and safely.
Cleaning your machine
Wipe up detergent, bleach, and other spills with
a soft, damp cloth or sponge as they occur.
Occasionally wipe the outside of the washer to
keep its it looking like new.
Check all pockets for sharp or metal objects eg. keys,
pins, clips, money, etc. as they may damage the interior of
your machine.
If any such items are found please do not rest/leave them
on top of the machine.
Winter storage or moving care
Install and store your machine where it will not be subject to freezing temperatures as any water left
n hoses, etc. may damage it.
If you wish to store/move your machine during freezing weather, please take note of the following:
• Disconnect from mains.
• Disconnect and drain water inlet hoses.
• Run the washing machine on a drain and
spin setting (see page 10) for 1 minute.
• Unplug the power supply cord.
Non-use or vacation care
Operate your washing machine only when you are at home.
If you are on vacation or your machine is not being used for an extended period of time, you
should:
• Unplug the power supply cord or turn off eletrical power to the washer.
• Disconnect the water supply.
This helps avoid accidental flooding (due to a water pressure surge) while you are away.
