CLEANING THE DOOR SEAL/BELLOW
1. Open the washer door and remove any clothing or items from the washer.
2. Inspect the gray colored seal/bellow between the door
opening and the basket for stained areas. Pull back the
seal/bellow to inspect all areas under the seal/bellow and to
check for foreign objects.
3. If you find stained areas , wipe down these areas of the seal/bellow using the procedure
below:
a) Mix a dilute solution containing ¾ cup (177 mL) of liquid chlorine bleach and 1 gal. (3.8
L) of warm tap water.
b) Wipe the seal/bellow area with the dilute solution using a damp cloth.
c) Let stand 5 minutes.
d) Wipe down the area thoroughly with a dry cloth and let the washer interior air dry with
the door open.
IMPORTANT:
•
Wear rubber gloves when cleaning for prolonged periods.
•
Refer to the bleach manufacturer's instructions for proper use.
PRESERVING THE TOP COVER AND THE FRONT FRAME
Do not place any heavy or sharp objects or a detergent box on the washer. Keep them on the purchased
pedestal or in a separate storage box.
Objects may scratch or damage the top cover or fall off the washer.
CAUTION
Since the entire washer has a high-gloss finish, the surface can be scratched or damaged. Avoid
scratching or damaging the surface when using the washer.
