cleaner. Do not use abrasive powders or cleaning
pads.

needed, using a recommended cleaner labeled wash-
er safe.

maintenance. They are located under the agitator on
the bottom of the washtub. During the wash and

ing the spin and
drain the filters
are cleaned auto-

one cup of bleach or white vinegar to a full load of
water without clothes. Run the washer through a
complete cycle.
• Turn the water faucets off and disconnect the inlet
hoses.
