Washer Maintenance Procedure
This washer has a special cycle that uses higher water volumes
in combination with liquid chlorine bleach to thoroughly clean the
inside of the washer.
NOTES:
■ Read these instructions completely before beginning the
cleaning process.
■ If necessary, the cleaning cycle may be interrupted by
pressing the keypad twice. However, this will not immediately
stop the cycle. The washer will continue with several rinse
and drain steps to ensure that all remaining bleach is rinsed
from the washer.
Begin procedure
1. Open the washer door and remove any clothing or items from
the washer.
2. Use liquid chlorine bleach:
Open the dispenser drawer and immediately add 160 mL
(2/3 cup) of liquid chlorine bleach to the bleach compartment.
NOTE: Do not add any detergent to this cycle. Use of more
than 160 mL (2/3 cup) of bleach will cause product damage
over time.
3. Close the washer door and the dispenser drawer.

in the washer.

to Step 7.

will be displayed. Then the door will unlock.
■ Press to cancel the failure code.
Then repeat steps 1, 3, and 4 to start the cycle again.
6. Once the cycle has begun, allow the cycle to complete.
7. After the cycle is complete, leave the door open slightly, to
allow for better ventilation and drying of washer interior.
Always do the following to maintain washer freshness:
■ Use only "HE" High Effi ciency detergent.
■ Leave the door slightly open after each cycle to allow for
better ventilation and drying of washer interior.
■ Clean the washer monthly using the Washer Maintenance

■ If the procedure does not suffi ciently improve the washer
freshness, please evaluate your installation and usage
conditions for other causes.
