Care and Cleaning

Outside

• When washing is completed, wipe top and sides of
washer with a damp cloth. Turn water faucets off to
prevent pressure build-up in the hoses.
• As needed, clean the cabinet with mild soap and
water. Never use harsh, gritty or abrasive
cleansers. If door or console becomes stained, clean
with diluted chlorine bleach [1/2 cup (120 ml) in 1
quart (.95 L) water]. Rinse several times with clear
water.
• Remove glue residue from tape or labels with a
mixture of warm water and mild detergent. Or, touch
residue with the sticky side of the tape or label.
• Before moving the washer, place a strip of
cardboard or thin fiberboard under the front leveling
legs to prevent floor damage.

Cleaning the Dispenser Drawer Area

Detergent and fabric softener may build up in the
dispenser drawer. Residue should be removed once or
twice a month.
• Remove the drawer by first sliding the safety latch to
the right, then pulling the drawer out until it stops.
• Reach back into the left rear corner of the drawer
cavity and press down firmly on the lock tab (left rear
portion of the drawer). Pull out the drawer.
• Remove the insert from the bleach and fabric softener
compartments.
• Rinse the drawer and inserts with hot tap water to
remove traces of accumulated powders and liquids.
Large amounts of fabric softener residue may
indicate improper dilution or more frequent cleaning
is required.
