Inside Routine Cleaning (Preventative)
To help prevent odors, mold or mildew, leave the door
open for a few hours after use or whenever the washer is
not in use.
CAUTION
ENTRAPMENT and TIP-OVER HAZARD
Do not leave the door open if there are small children or
pets present. An open door could entice children to hang
on the door or crawl inside the washer. If there are no
small children present, you may leave the door ajar to
prevent odor build up.
TO REFRESH OR CLEAN INSIDE OF WASHER

once a month.

®
use both. Press START to begin.
IMPORTANT

cycle will cause a severe out-of-balance situation that
could damage the washing machine.

Immediately follow up with a Rinse &
Spin cycle on Extra High Spin Speed
with no detergent or bleach to help
clear any residual bleach left after the
Clean Washer cycle.
NOTE
If the Clean Washer cycle is cancelled or paused during
the cycle, the washer will go through 2 rinse cycles to
clean the drum of any residual bleach before unlocking
the door.
