CARE AND CLEANING
Inside Cleaning (Aggressive)
In cases where System Clean Cycle along with care and
cleaning of rubber gasket folds isn't done, and severe
odor, mold, mildew, or residue buildup have developed,
follow the below cleaning procedure to help alleviate the
problem.
CLEANING PROCEDURE - Washer Drum
Ensure the wash tub is empty (or no clothes load). Open
the detergent drawer and pour eight (8) cups of bleach
into the detergent compartment on the left. Select
System Clean cycle as described previously in Inside
Routine Cleaning (Preventive).
Upon cycle completion inspect the interior of the
washer to see if the odor/residue has been eliminated.
If any additional cleaning is required, repeat the above
procedure. This may take several cycles depending on
the severity of the odor/residue. You may observe some
remaining discoloration due to the long term effects of
this residue.
For especially contaminated areas visible inside the drum
(including the front rubber seal), these areas might be
more effectively cleaned by spraying a Bleach Cleaner on
a scrub brush, soft sponge, or towel and scrubbing.
IMPORTANT
Always wear rubber or latex gloves and protect fl oor
and clothing from damage.
If odor is still left after bleach cycle(s) and bleach cleaner,
open the detergent drawer and pour one (1) pouch
of TIDE
WASHING MACHINE CLEANER in detergent
®
drawer. Select system clean cycle as above and start
the washer.
For best results
Immediately follow up with a rinse &
spin cycle. Select fresh rinse on max
spin speed with no detergent or bleach
to help clear any residual bleach left
after the system clean Cycle.
IMPORTANT
See Inside Routine Cleaning (Preventive) for
future cleaning maintenance which is necessary to
avoid repeating issues.
NOTE
If the system clean cycle is cancelled or paused
during the cycle, the washer will go through 2 rinse
cycles to clean the drum of any residual bleach before
unlocking the door.
