Clean the drum, TUB CLEAN

Using the washing machine in a humid space
for a long period of time may lead to a buildup
of black mold and germs in the air inside the
washer tub and affect your health. If you clean
the washer tub regularly on a weekly basis
using TUB CLEAN it will keep the washer tub
clean for hygienic use.
1
Add tub cleaner or lime scale remover into
the detergent dispenser drawer.
- Do not exceed the maximum detergent
limit line when you add it. Detergent may
remain in the washer tub after cleaning.
- When you use liquid chlorine bleach, load it
into the liquid chlorine bleach compartment.
When you use a powdered cleaner, add it
into the main wash detergent compartment.
- When you use cleaning tablets, place them
directly into the washer tub. (Do not add
cleaning tablets to the drawer.)
2
Do operate tub clean.
NOTE
• Never load laundry while using TUB
CLEAN. The laundry may damage or
become contaminated. Make sure to
clean the washer tub when it is empty.
• Leave the door open after finishing the
laundry to keep the tub clean.
• TUB CLEAN should be repeated weekly.
• Safely and conveniently secure the door
slightly ajar with a magnetic door plunger.
This will promote air circulation and allow
the interior of the machine to dry.
NOTE
• Wave Force process during the Rinse step
helps in maintaining tub hygiene. The tub
is cleaned by rotating the water-filled tub
at an optimized RPM.
• Wave Force is intrinsic within the Rinse
step. No additional setting is required.
• Wave Force is NOT a substitute for the
TUB CLEAN cycle. TUB CLEAN should
still be repeated weekly to maintain
hygienic use.
