WASHER CARE

Cleaning Your Washer
Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to wipe up any spills such as
detergent or bleach from the outside of your washer.
Clean your washer interior by mixing 1 cup (250 mL) of chlorine
bleach and enough detergent to equal twice the manufacturer’s
recommended amount for a normal wash load. Pour this mixture
into your washer and run it through a complete cycle using hot
water. Repeat this process if necessary.
Remove any hard water deposits using only cleaners labeled as
washer safe.
Cleaning the liquid fabric softener dispenser
(on some models)
1. Remove dispenser by grasping top with both hands and
squeezing, while pushing upward with thumbs.
2. Rinse dispenser under warm water, then replace it.
NOTE: To avoid damage to the washer or clothing, do not wash
clothes with the liquid fabric softener dispenser removed.
Water Inlet Hoses
This washer does not include water inlet hoses. Use of factory
specified parts is recommended. See “Accessories” for a list of
factory specified hoses available for separate purchase. These
hoses are manufactured and tested to meet the manufacturer’s
specifications.
Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the risk of hose
failure. Periodically inspect and replace inlet hoses if bulges,
kinks, cuts, wear, or leaks are found.
When replacing your inlet hoses, mark the date of replacement
on the label with a permanent marker.
Moving and Storage
Because some water may stay in the hoses, freezing can damage
your washer. If storing or moving your washer during freezing
weather, winterize it.
Winterizing your washer
1. Shut off both water faucets. Disconnect and drain water inlet
hoses. Pour 1 qt (1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze into the basket.
2. Run washer on a drain and spin setting for about 30 seconds
to mix the antifreeze and remaining water.
3. Unplug washer or disconnect power.
