Vacation, Storage and Moving Care

Install and store your laundry center where it will not freeze.
Because some water may stay in the hoses, freezing can damage
your laundry center. If storing or moving your laundry center
during freezing weather, winterize it.
Non-use or vacation care
Operate your laundry center only when you are at home. If you
will be on vacation or not using your laundry center for an
extended period of time, you should:
■ Unplug laundry center 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.

4. Run washer on a drain and spin setting for about 30 seconds
to mix the antifreeze and water.
