Self Clean

Certain usage and environmental conditions may result in some residue build-up or odor
in the washer drum. To prevent this build-up of residue or odor causing bacteria and keep
your washer drum fresh and clean, perform the SELF CLEAN cycle at least once a month
or every 40 cycles. Perform the recommended procedure below when using the SELF
CLEAN cycle.
1. Remove all items from the washer drum and ensure the drum is empty. Laundry left in
the drum during the SELF CLEAN cycle may be damaged.

NOTE
• The water temperature for SELF CLEAN is defaulted to Hot. This temperature cannot

• In the case where residue is present in the washer drum, add liquid chlorine bleach to
the MAX level line in the main-wash compartment before starting the SELF CLEAN
cycle. Do not add the liquid chlorine bleach to the bleach compartment (This is only the
case for SELF CLEAN cycle).
• Do not exceed the max line. Do not use or mix any other detergent or chemicals during
the SELF CLEAN cycle. If necessary, run a RINSE+SPIN cycle after the SELF CLEAN
cycle has completed to help remove any remaining residue.
