Turn off the water faucets after finish-
ing the day's washing. This will shut off
the water supply to the washer and pre-
vent the unlikely possibility of damage
from escaping water.
Washers can be damaged if water is not
removed from hoses and internal compo-
nents before storage. Prepare the wash-
er for storage as follows:
• Select NORMAL on the WHITES cycle
and add one cup of bleach OR white
vinegar to a full load of water without
clothes. (Do not mix bleach and vine-
• Put dry, unfolded clothes loosely in the
tub, up to the top row of holes for a
maximum load.
• Do not wrap large items like sheets
around the agitator.
• Mix large and small items for best cir-
culation. Wash bulky items like blan-
kets separately.
The LoadSensor™ agitator is specially
designed to be sensitive to every load.
The spiral fins will move continuously with
large, heavy loads. With smaller, more
delicate loads, the spiral fins will move
intermittently, or with very light loads, not
at all. It is normal to notice a difference in
the agitator sound from load to load.
Use a soft cloth to wipe up all detergent,
bleach or other spills as they occur.
Clean the following as recommended:
Control Panel – clean with a soft, damp
cloth and glass cleaner. Do not use
abrasive powders or cleaning pads.
gar in the same wash. Hazardous
fumes can form.) Run the washer
through a complete cycle.
• Turn the water faucets off and discon-
nect the inlet hoses.
• Disconnect the washer from the electri-
cal supply and leave the washer lid
open to let air circulate inside the tub.
• When laundering wrinkle free items or
items of delicate construction, wash-
able woolens or loosely knit items,
never use less than the MEDIUM water
level setting. This will minimize shrink-
age, wrinkling and pulling of seams.
• For best results, add the detergent to
washtub before adding the load.
• Close lid carefully to avoid slamming.
Cabinet – clean with soap and water.
Interior – hard water deposits may be
removed using a recommended hard
water remover/cleaner labeled washer
safe. Follow the cleaner manufactur-
er's directions for use, and make sure
the washer is run through a complete
cycle to rinse out any remaining clean-
ing substance.
• If the washer has been stored in below
– freezing temperatures, allow time for
the washer to thaw out prior to use.
• After storage, select NORMAL on the
WHITES cycle and run the washer
through a complete cycle.
