Cleaning The Drain Screen; Cleaning The Washer/Dryer - Holiday Navigator 2003 Owner's Manual

The removable drain screen, which protects the pump from lint
and foreign matter, needs to be cleaned periodically. The frequency
in which it is cleaned depends upon the type of clothes that are
washed. Cotton articles produce more lint than nylon articles.
Under no circumstance should the drain screen be removed while
the machine is full of water. To clean the drain screen (on an
empty machine) open the service door by pressing on the left hand
side. Place a cloth or shallow tray under the drain screen housing
to catch any remaining water that may drip out. It may be helpful
to first set the machine to spin then remove the drain screen. This
procedure reduces the amount of water released. Turn the drain
screen counterclockwise and pull the drain screen out. Clean the
screen to remove any dirt and lint. To replace the screen, slide it
back into the housing and turn it clockwise to secure. Close the
service door.
NOTE: Check for water leaks before using the washer after
removing and replacing the drain screen.
Occasionally wipe the exterior cabinet of the washer-dryer with a damp
cloth or sponge. Wipe dry with a soft cloth. Do not use polish on plastic trim.
Clean the interior with one cup of chlorine bleach mixed with two cups of
granular detergent. Run the washer through a complete cycle using the hot
water. Repeat the process if necessary. Remove hard water deposits using only
cleaners labeled as washer safe. Wipe the inside of the washer-dryer door with
a soft cloth to remove any moisture. Periodically apply a thin coat of paste
wax to the inner door, especially to the area which is immediately next to the
door window. This will protect the door finish from laundry spills and
discoloration.
NOTE: Should the washer-dryer need removal for service,
care should be taken as the washer-dryer weighs approximately
185 lbs. Proper accommodations should be made to avoid risk
of injury.
