Care & Cleaning
Cleaning the Exterior
1. Turn off the water faucets after finishing the
day's washing. This will shut off the water supply
to the washer and prevent the unlikely possibility of
damage from escaping water. Leave the door open
to allow the inside of the washer to dry out.
2. Bleach, detergent, solvents, etc. spilled on the top of
your washer that are allowed to remain will remove
the glossy finish. Remove all spills with a damp, soft
cloth as they occur.
3. Check hoses to be sure there are not kinks or
knots.
4. Clean the following as recommended:
Control panel - Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do
not use abrasive powders or cleaning pads. Do not
spray cleaners directly on the panel.
Cabinet - Clean with soap and water.
5. Lifetime lubrication is done at the factory, so your
washer never needs to be oiled or greased.
6. Do not lay heavy or sharp objects on top of your
washer.
7. The top of the washer should not be used for
removing stains from garments. Some stain
removers, such as rust remover, will mar the finish.
8. Remove pins, buckles or other sharp objects from
clothes to prevent scratching interior parts.
9. Clothes should not be stored in the washer.
10. If you close your home for the winter, have a service
technician drain the washer. Unplug the cord from
electrical outlet and disconnect hoses from faucets.

display will show the estimated

wash time left in the cycle.
Cleaning the Interior
Clean the interior of the washer periodically to remove
any dirt, soil, odor, mold, mildew or bacteria residue
that may remain in the washer as a result of washing
clothes. We recommend taking the following steps
every 60 to 120 days to clean and freshen your washer
interior. The frequency with which the washer should
be cleaned and freshened depends on factors such as
usage, the amount of dirt, soil or bacteria being run
through your washer, or the use of cold water. Failure
to follow these instructions may result in unsatisfactory
conditions, including unpleasant odor and/or
permanent stains on the washer or wash load.
To clean and freshen the washer interior:
1. Make a solution of one cup chlorine bleach and two
cups warm water. Be careful not to spill or splash
the bleach solution.
2. Wipe the lower portion of gray door seal with bleach
solution and soft cloth.
3. Fill the bleach dispenser with chlorine bleach.
4. Run the washer through a complete cycle using hot
water.
5. Repeat the wash cycle if necessary.
Hard water deposits may be removed, if needed, using
a recommended cleaner labeled washer safe.
